RE: Great Planes Super Stearman 36
Guys!
We were able to squeeze two Flights on Wednesday morning and before Hurricane Irene came by our coast line with heavy winds and rain. I was not able to upload the Videos until this morning during lunch time break.
You will see a more satisfied owner and RC Flyer "Gerry" after he changed out the power system from the high 1250Kv Super Tiger .10 ...to.....the E-Flite 480 (910Kv) Outrunner Brushless motor and swinging the APC "Slow Flyer" 10 X 7 propeller.
Gerry could be heard as saying that normal cursing was around 1/2 throttle and his first flight was using his Zippy 3-Cell, 1300mAH, 20C discharge, Li-POLYs and the second flight was using my Turnigy 3-Cell, 2200mAH, 25C discharge, Li-POLY.
I took out my Astro Flight Watt meter and we measured the AMP draw, the observed was around 16.45 AMPs at half (1/2) Throttle and almost 24 AMPs at Wide Open Throttle.
Here is Gerry's 2nd Flight "Re-Maiden" of his Super Stearman:
