RE: KATANA . 50 Is it too heavy ?
Hi guys,
After a very long winter, we have restarted flying in Switzerland.
I have also built the Katana, CMP Pro ARF kit is not the best quality IMHO.
I have used .53 Irvine engine with bisson pitts muffler, Hitec servos ( 475 and 635 karbonites )and a Hitec receiver.
Weight is 2.600 grs. ( 5,7 Lbs. ) without wheel pants, spinner and fuel. I have used 4,8V battery to save some weight.
I think it is still a heavy plane. I wish it had less weight or more wing area. Anyhow, I will see how it flies...... and post a report.
Regards.
