Default RE: Hacker Antares Electric glider info wanted

Hi Doug,

I've got a Hacker Antares. I tried it with a hot buggy motor and a car speedy with a 8x5.5 prop & 8cells but it couldn't pull skin off a custard.

So I've picked up a 2820/10 from aircraft-world.com for $108 AUS delvivered....next step is to try the 60AMP controller advertised on ebay.com.au

Will slip a NiCd pack into it but plan on going to LiPolys asap. 12" CAM prop too.

The Antares needs beefing up a lot. It's a fragile beastie. Other than that, I paid $180AUS for a pretty nice glider. Fragile but looks good.

regards,
Chris
