RE: BANDIT ARF - Almost finished
The Bandit is awesome flying Sport jets. I been flying my with TJ100 power plant for awhile. Last week decided put the P-60SE in. Since this was original built light for EDF and use my light weight undercarriage.
I had my P-60 bypass made it to fit with the ducting I made for TJ100. Using my F-16 and A-4 fuel tanks. I got her all done with smoke system weight in 17.5 lbs dry. We put in three flights today. The last flight take out the smoke pump and use the smoke tank for extra fuel. The performance was amazing with the P-60SE.
Now it multi-power set up. If I like to fly E-power. It only take me 1 hour to swap out the power plant. I made everything easy to remove for changing the power plant.

Hi Igor Congrats!
We will be waiting you to fly with us
Unfortunately we lost our BARF today due to a radio signal loss
This is part of the game, isn´t it?
Have nice trip out there.

Achilles, I could have lost mine a couple of weeks ago same way. My AR9000 Rx was dead, but luckily the sattelite Rx was working fine so I never lost signal (that I could notice, however the failsafe did activate and shut down the engine!)
One thing that I didn't know and was told by a Spektrum field rep is that the Main Rx and Sattelite Rx antennas cannot touch the carbon fiber fuselage. Mine where not touching, but mainly out of ignorance.
Where your antennas touching the fuselage?
Sorry about your loss, that sucks! []

Put a keep a rew !!!! My condolences, Achilles.. this bird didn´t deserved that.. and did it "freezed" on air ? I have not much information on Futaba´s 2.44 but does it have a frame counter monitor, like the Spektrum to see what happened in the last flight?

Thanks Enrique.
Yep it freezzed in the air.
I don´t think it have a counter monitor but the rx broken in tinny pieces.
