Status: offline 		The Monolog 110 was updated with a new canopy design and given a new color scheme for 2012. Our test plane is powered by the Hacker A50-16L and 18-10 or 18-12 APC on 8S. You can also run on 10S with a smaller prop but 8S still has more than unlimited vertical. The plane comes with parts to build the motor box for an electric motor or glow (YS 110).
Retail price $350 and is shipped in a nice compact wood crate

Glad that will be available. Just a detail, maybe, but it really does make a difference on a Pattern plane, especially when the rest of the plane looks so good.

Status: offline 		I have had several emails with the designer, BJ Park and he is adamant that the old landing gear detracts from the flight characteristics of this plane which is why he went with the wire gear. However, he will sell and we will stock the fiberglass gear as an optional item for $50 and that includes new wheel pants, wheels, and axles but he wanted to be sure that we tell people that flight testing by the factory does not show this to be an improvement to the plane (except perhaps looks) and in fact detracts from it.

I guess this is better way of communicating with you than emails.

What batteries and size did you use ?  can you be more specific than 8S.

 I took a look at the plane and it's typical high quality great value stuff that BJ Craft has been doing on all of their planes. Mike Mueller

Status: offline 		Any pictures of batteries size and placement ? I am using 10s packs side by side but I do not think they will fit. Is it critical which way packs mount ? Should they be mounted with cells vertical or horizontal, does it matter ?

Maybe long packs would be better.

How many MAH did you use to fly it ?

Thanks


Steve

Status: online 		Having flown both of them, they both fly very similar. They are both good flying planes, especially for the money. They are never going to compete at the top levels with the newest FAI designs, but they were never designed to.
