RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Great news...thanks fishunter.
I've been flying the Mini Pulse on high rates the last 8-10 flights and am getting used to the added sensitivity of the controls. I'm feeling fairly comfortable...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Hello Fishunter....I have the E-Flight Extra 260 3d 480 on layaway and hope it's a relatively small step up from the Mini Pulse I've been flying. Is the Extra 260 you flew the same model and if so,...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

I agree with fliprob, that after flying the Styker, this could be a much more docile plane. I've had my eye on the Stryker for a year, and I don't think I'm ready for 80-100 mph flights. However,...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

I have used only the 10 x 4.5 SF, because that's what the LHS recommends for the plane, which he also put together for me. I have not tried any other prop, so can't give you a direct comparison. ...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Grandus, I've been flying Real Flight for the last couple years, have upgraded to version 3.5. Unfortunately, the mini Pulse isn't in there, yet. But I have found an electric Cap 232 that seems...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Doc Austin and KarlK.....Yes, I can confirm E-Flite sells the fus. My LHS ordered one for me, along with a canopy and cowling, when I crashed my MP a few months ago. It came in clean and sweet and...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Just a reminder for you electric Newbies, and I'm fairly new on electrics, too. I learned a lesson the hard way Sunday.

After a very successful Mini Pulse flight and the best landing I've made...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Well, maybe.....
When I bought my mini Pulse, I had this same idea in mind. And I did run across one other pilot in this forum (I think it was this one) who hand launched it successfully.

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

Ken...I can help. First, I have been told by the experienced flyers in our club that if the bubble has too much air in it to smooth out with the heat gun, to put a pin hole on the edge. Then as it...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

The closest G3 or G3.5 plane I have found is the Cap 232 electric, flown at low rates, although high rates aren't that much higher. The Cap is a little faster if you installed the recommended 450...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

[:o]Well, I hate to put a damper on all this uplifting, positive feedback on the mighty Mini Pulse XT.....but guess what.....this plane will crash, too. Just ask any pilot.

I had four days off...

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

I have the 2100, 3 cell Thunder Power battery, and the LHS, who put my Pulse together, had it slid all the way forward in the compartment, then fastened only with the wrap around velcro.

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

RE: E-Flite Mini Pulse XT Owner's Club

bexusflexus:

I managed to maiden my Mini Pulse today and I think I can give you a better opinion on the Real Flight planes as comparison. I have the 450 motor and it does not fly fast, about...

Well, I see that I'm not the only one wondering about this same question. I have the same simulator and have been cruising the planes for what I think the Pulse XT will fly like. My second trainer...

I have several places in mind to park-fly, but have not been there in a few years,...
