YA f15

RE: YA f15
I bought a used YA F-15C ARF and am putting the KT-140 in it. Are the factory recommended control throws what everyone is using? Including 45 degrees of flaps for landing? Are you using 1/2 flaps for takeoff, and if so, how much deflection? Thanks in advance.

Gus

I felt like mine was under powered with a Titan (34lbs) so I converted it to twin Rabbits. It became more fuel efficient surprisingly and had lots of vertical as you might expect. All that said I would keep it as light as possible and go with the KT 140G. They are making 33lbs on the test stand at SL.

RE: YA f15
would a P80 (20lbs) be good enough? I am intending to fly off grass when I get mine.... (on that note: Can the ya gear handle grass feilds)

Hi,
The first flight of this iteration of the airplane on turbine power was with an old P-80. It flew fine, though not impressively. I have some video of the ARF on a P-80SE, and I thought it flew great.

RE: YA f15
Flew one for years on a p-70. Didn't do anything fast, but taught me alot about using the wings. Changed to a p-120 and love it.
Took the flap servos out, never used them whith either engine.
Has anyone mastered using the airbrake on landing?
