Default RE: Air Hogs Aero Ace!

ORIGINAL: micro_builder

nice work neurotex, any ideas for coloring it? Tim, give the Fling a try, it seriously only takes a few minutes to build one and my little single motor Fling flew great and it seems neurotexes AA version flys just as well (probably quite a bit more stable, actually). plus, all it needs is a couple foam dinner plates (cheap is good!). i know what you mean about being a "walking murphy" though, heck, you're preaching to the choir here!

Thanks, I wish I would've colored it some before I built it but I wanted to test fly it first.
I think I'll build another one and color it- play around with the canard & wing design
some.
Yeah Tim, give it a try. It is a quick flat build all done with the Hefty Extra Strong & Deep
26cm foam plates.
As for the batteries cooling I don't wait after each flight to charge but I don't fly until
the battery is so low the plane shuts off either. I fly about 5 or 6 minutes until the power
gets sluggish and then recharge.

edit: Had a chance to fly for a couple of hours this afternoon. The Strato is now history.
Full throttle into a fence ah, it was starting to fall to parts anyway. You can only glue
so much.

Finally got a chance to really fly the SingleWing also. That plane is sweet! I may even
begin to like it more than the AA. It's got some power for a little scoot. Had to tape a
penny to the nose but once it's trimmed up right it's a fantastic flyer.
