RE: Skatty-powered Tensor 4D
I had a chance to maiden my Tensor yesterday in an empty parking lot. It flew great on either a 2-cell or 3-cell ThunderPower 860mAh pack. The plane could hover on either pack but it would really move out into the air with the 3-cell pack!
I'm glad that I could test fly it outdoors first before flying it in a gym because the turning response is a real learning curve. It basically forces you to learn to add rudder on the turns. I did, however, discover that it will not slide when on a knife edge so you can turn it 90 degrees with the ailerons and pull up on the elevator to swing it around before turning it 90 degrees in either direction for upright or inverted.
I also tried the logarithmic throttle setting since it was so easy to change back and forth on the Jeti PLUS ESC. This seemed to provide a more consistent power change over the full range of throttle.
This plane is a real hoot!
