Default RE: Sig <span class=

I fly a blue KSA myself powered by a Super Tigre .51 ringed engine. It is also carrying a wireless video system which includes a 10 cell AA nicad pack for power.
The plane is still overpowered. One thing I would do (and have since done) would be to add some tri-stock to where the tail meets the fuse. I have had my fin try to remove itself twice so far. Can even see it waving merrily back and forth in one of the videos when I had the cam aimed to the rear.
Forgot to mention that even with the overkill engine and the added weight of the video system, it doesnt need any struts. If I was gonna do it over, I would have used my .46LA instead of the .51ST.

I gotta question for you guys too.,
Just picked up my Blue Kadet Sr ARF and a TT Pro .61 and Volfly you may be ablel to answer this.
Sitting here looking at that wing and the attachment system and remembering the old Indy RC Robinhood 80 that stated you need struts.

Do you think this plane needs struts. Specially if you plan to do some hard training and float flying.


Thanks
