Hobby Lobby cessna 172 arf all wood
Hay is the thread for this plane Dead I just Bought one and put a e-flite450 outrunner in it with 4 h55 servos and a castle creations 54 amp esc I'm planning on fly it with ether a hxt 1700mah 11.1 or a 1300mah dothese thing have any glide path to them or do they drop like a rock
I flew my mini telemaster with no problem and my slow stick (anyone can fly that)
so I just wondered what to expect the plans were pretty slim and I just hope i dont have it over powered or over weight
any info??[8D][8D]

Check the CG against the manual and you should be good. May be overpowered, but you'll know soon enough ;-) I used the AXI from the recommended list on the HL order page, but I've not taken it up yet. Really sweet plane, but as you rightly point out the instructions are almost non-existent!
Good luck and post a vid when you get her in the air

New even bigger motor and alot of epoxy still come in @ 32Oz with batt
