RE: Official Hobby Zone

I gotta disagree about that 10/8 prop on the stock 480 brushed motor.

I fly it full throttle the entire battery pack. With a little wind its just too much. Lost 2 motors now.

3rd motor...

RE: Official Hobby Zone

Maybe that packaging tape does strengthen the foam pretty good. It messed up my CG but ive crashed the sucker so hard. Like really hard. Amazed myself the wing or fuse never got seriously damaged.

RE: Official Hobby Zone

Hell yeah got the parkzone 10/8 on the Cub just waiting for the wind to die...maybe tomorrow morning.

Why would the Eflight 10/8 work better? I could see one being lighter...but more bite?

RE: Official Hobby Zone

So do you fly at 50% throttle mostly? Cause i read somewhere that the bigger battery and more aggressive prop kills the motor. The previous owner of my plane said the same thing. He likes the 10/8...

Put the plane all back together last night. Used the red washers as a lock washer. I realize it would be dumb to put them between the motor mount and the firewall. I thought it was a shock absorbing...

RE: Official Hobby Zone

You guys nailed it. The packaging tape is on the fuselage and main wing. The back wing and rudder was painted in Krylon Fusion. For some reason that paint added an S load of weight. About 10 grams...

Cool Bert thanks for the awesome response. The plane is USED. Ithink just like your plane the stock 1300 would have little effect on the CG. I dont have that size batt to test. But i think a 1300...
