RE: Parkzone T-28 Trojan vs F4U Corsair

I think since the T-28 comes with the tricyle gear, it will be a little easier (compared to tail dragger of Corsair)...My suspicion is that anyone that has flown the T-28 will want the F4U (I know I...

RE: Top 5 Electric Warbirds?? Lets rank them

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Cowboy,

Any chance the throttle was left on with the airplane stuck, causing damage to the ESC or motor?

Are you stating that with no prop installed, throttle acts completely normal? Could...

RE: What's The Best Li-Po Pack For Parkzone Warbirds?

One thing that make the PKZ LiPO attractive is the fact that it already comes with an EFL EC3 connector installed, and PKZ offers an adapter from EC3 to the PKZ connector (PKZ1054 according to the...

RE: Parkzone J-3 Cub?

I agree with Leo, althought the J-3 is a fine intermediate airplane, the Super Cub is the right airplane for you. Trust me, you will love it!

RE: parkzone fw 190 lipo battery

papadave,

Yes, you can use the 2200mAh 3S PKZ LiPO. It will simply give you just a tad more flight time than a 2100mAh pack (100mAh more capacity)..

RE: Official Aerobird Swift Thread

Typically, ailerons and beginners are not a good combination. I would suggest you start with 3 channel (rudder, elevator, throttle controls). Have you thought about the HobbyZone Super Cub? I love...

RE: Stryker v Spitfire

Do you have aileron experience? The Stryker B is much more durable, and much easier to repair. If the Spit is like the other PKZ warbirds, it will look real nice and be very scale, but they are not...

RE: New to R/C Flying - Looking for first plane

FlyinLo,

I think you made a good choice. You will love the Super Cub. Just make sure you fly your first flights with no wind and lots of room.

Keep us updated!

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Any plane can crash, but I have seen the ACT save more than 1 person's bacon...If you follow the instructions, ACT can help you save your plane. It will not interupt your flight unless the plane is...

You are correct, they must be referring to charging the optional 8 cell with the included DC peak charger (which only charges 4-7 cells)...

There is an AC charger that is included...

RE: Official Hobby Zone "Super Cub" Thread

Bowbender,

I believe you have it backwards. The HB Super Cub have the 5 wire servos, and the Typhoon includes the more traditional hobby 3 wire servos...Is that what you meant?

RE: F27/F27B Stryker

Hello,

I guess it depends on what the value you see the upgrades of the "B".....

hinged elevons


Certainly the 27 flies good enough for most,...
