RE: Four engine model

Thanks Paul,

Weighs 20 lbs ready to fly, 110" wingspan built from Palmer plans, with 4 x AXI 2820/12 motors, 4 x CC45 ESC's, 4 x PQ-4000SP-3S Batteries, 3 blade graupner 10/7 props, one set in each nacelle. Cost around $1200 for the power system. $500 for the batteries. Around 250 watts each and that setup pulls her around no problem for about 10 min., I fly for 6 min timed and then set up for landing which gives me 4 min of reserve power for go arounds if needed. Takes off in about 200' which is impressive in it's self to see how fast it accelerates. It's wonderful to not worry about the motors. All the info you could want plus video of the flights on my build web site at www.b24project.com.

We need more multi's in the air!

Mark
