Default RE: Showtime

cstevec, thanks for the input.

I think I will go for 945 and 925s , may be a couple of digitals at the tail and a NiCd at 2400 mAh at either 4.8 or 6V. Now regarding the engine choice, I already have a YS 140 FZ I it has only 15 tanks. I have it since 1997 it is one of the very first ones I have replaced the silicon of the regulator and works fine with 30% Cool Power Heli. Some people have suggested to replace the gaskets but I will not bother, I'll see how it goes.

I'm really tempted though to go for the for the 110 FZ I just want to save some weight and go with the recommended configuration. There are also an OS-120 Mk III and a Webra 120 on self but I don't think I will use them for various reasons.

Well I have not been into gassers and bigger planes. Lately I fly 3D fun fly models such as the Flip 3D, Cougar 2000 and the electric Fliton Jumping Jack. Well this is gonna be the first 120 size plane combining 3D,pattern and freestyle capabilites. So I would like to use some descent equipment that will be above average. I also have a local pattern contest to participate in September so I wouldn't rather my plane to be under-equiped compared to the 2x2 patternships I will probably see there.

The plane will depart from England on Friday and will be here in a week's time. When I receive it I will try to take some photos and weigh everything, I would like to compare with yours.

Rgds,

Nick
