Default RE: KMP / YT FW-190 Build Thread

We've just finished ours up after picking it up from a friend after he installed a Saito radio 170. Flight of his was marginal so I swooped down for the kill and bought it from him. He's a fantastic builder and a Top Gun judge so the pics don't do it justice. We flew it the first couple of times with a Xoar 3 blade and Hacker A60 14L and the performance was fair. Switched to a 20x15 2 blade APC and it really woke up. Also, lots of right thrust, toe in, and a bunch of little things. Placed a video on Youtube but the wind was howling so keep the volume down so it doesn't hurt your ears! My son, who flew it, says it flies better than our Blue Nose. 10S TP 5000 batteries, Sierra retracts and JR radio rounds it out. Enjoy it!
