RE: New: Beech Baron and Duchess arf
Late to the party but I finally have this kit, still gathering the necessary pieces. Went through this long thread and collected a lot of valuable information, thanks guys! I plan to build the plane as light as possible, trying to see if Power 32 size motors will be enough. There is a low kv version over at HobbyKing which I'll experiment with 6s lipo. I have some other 40 size planes and several larger planes all running 6s, so it will keep my battery inventory consistent.
I've seen the weird up/down cycle issue of E-Flite retracts in person and on Youtube. Has anybody experienced that with the scale struts?
Ordered some 1 watt LED emitters which I had success with before. These are the only ones that are visible during day light.
