GWS tiger moth gone Symetrical and brushless
Hi, I just added an extra set of wings on my GWS tigermoth, to make it symetrical from Horizon hobbies. With balsa struts next to the original and alot of hot glue to make sure that if they shift alittle with the wind, the struts will only bend a little with out braking off the wing!...It added alittle extra weight but that did not matter to my
Himaxx 2015-5400 on a "C" EPS 350 gear box, with a 1080 prop!.....right now I'm only using a 2Cell e-tec 1200, but it has more than enough power to climb vertical for so long be fore it stalls!!!!Loops and inverted flights are done with ease...Soon it will become a Ailerons too!....Tomorrow I'll go an purchase 3cell Kokam 1500 li-poly....I'll report the outcome!!!
Next projet is a corsair(already built and painted) with 16/15/4 Mega motor and 3:1 gear box.....

If you have a webhosting site as your email (eg. comcast has 30mb space per email) you could use that. That bisimetrical idea is pretty good.

No I don't sorry............but I just made a mistake and I traded my friend a 2SP1 e-tec for his 3SP1.....and now my moth goes vertical so soon, that took all the fun out of a Slow flyer!!!!Since I already have the F4U Corsair I don't really need another fast ship!.....I'll be selling it on Ebay, so look for it then!......Thanks for looking at my forum!!!!!!!!
