Default RE: Schweighofer/Hanno Prettner Curare ARF build

the lipolice engine looks very similar to the turnigy g 60 500kv....
i use this for the controller http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=10331
prop is an apc (what else) special electric 13/8
on 6 s, i have no complaint with the speed...
it is slower than my 9 pounds ys 60 equipped curare, but not that much...
but , overall, because the electric curare is very much lighter, the performance during aerobatics is the same, except i did feel more comfortable with the throttle stick....it is also way easyer to fly ...

the electric curare flyes much better thant the one i have scratch builded myself, because its light and, i have to say, straight...

There was no need for mixes or trimming, that s what impressed me the most...
the building has been made without any problem, due to the conception.

At the field, all i had to carry was a screwdriver, to attach the wing and the canopy..
when i leaved, the plane was as clean as i came...

All i can say is do it like they say in the notice... They did really work hard to achieve the curare project, and it feel like a brand new bmw m3...if you try to improve, it will be worst..



I m not nostalgic any more of kato kits and rossi, this is like being in the mood again...
