Whats on the shocky ailerons in the middle? What was the magical combo to making it hover?

What is that big white thing in the center of the TopCap?;)

First the hub that the prop ruberbands to came off the drive shaft while hovering in HobbyTown's asphalt parking lot. Splat. Damn. John was kind enough to make me a deal on foam safe CA :D Then friday morning, I was flying in my backyard and the whole drive shaft came out of the gearbox and i sorta glided into a cherry tree (good catch tree!). John Wondra kindly climbed the tree to retreive it :D

And yes, I sortof deadsticked John's TopCap and sorta hit a little hard... [:o]:eek:

Great pics. I'm hoping to have one of these next winter so I can get some flying in at the local civic center gym. Looks like fun.

theres a new vid of my shockflyer on www.3drc.info ... nothing spectacular to some of the shocks around, but i made the big mistake of using 16g servos, i cna honestly say that every gram helps!

Where is that big hall welsh?
Looks like it flies pretty well even with bricks for servos;)

Welsh3D 03-22-2004 06:01 PM

RE: Shocky action!
 
it fliers ok but you can only get about 30 secodns hover before it needs a short break... that's the problem... also the tail is twisting so much the knife egde turns are almost impossible in a hurry... you use elevator and it juast screws out... i'll sort that out on my nerw one though.

Did you notice i accidnelty included the saem clip 3 tiems in that video? lol

The hall is our local ice rink... costs £120 for a few hours.

the shockys fly the best with hs 50's of hs 55's

JohnVH 03-22-2004 09:26 PM

RE: Shocky action!
 
They are awefully slow, I have the MX30's in mine, fast!

XpastywhiteboyX 03-22-2004 09:50 PM

RE: Shocky action!
 
slow? the hs 50 is .09 but your servoes are good too

3DFanatic 03-23-2004 01:17 AM

RE: Shocky action!
 
55 is .13. That's way faster than your JR digis ;) I wouldn't put 50s in it. They're kinda low on torque. 55s are .28 ounces. Gramify that.

30 seconds??? Whaaaaaaaa? I fly 4.5 minutes of hovering with only a few seconds out of that to get all screwed up and reenter...

JohnVH 03-23-2004 01:24 AM

RE: Shocky action!
 
This plane would not fly with my digi's, at 2.24oz each, way too heavy, not to mention big.

3DFanatic 03-23-2004 01:42 AM

RE: Shocky action!
 
I know, but your saying my 55s are slow. Those 8411s are snails :PPP
