RE: First Plane - Almost ready to go - Give pointers?
Thanks Grandad! I think that advise was very good! I'm glad you said all of that! As far as the houses and people - don't worry about that part - this particular field is HUGE! If you ever heard of Hurrican Charlie a couple years back in SW Florida - This lot is where they brought every tree in Cape Coral to be shred into mulch - and they gave the mulch away for ffree - There's STILL tons of mulch there it's so big! The RF Link - I feel very confident in my Spektrum - yet I do know that something as simple as a low battery, a faulty connection point or anything like that can do me in. OK - well - I guess my revised flight plan includes Take-Off - I think I can handle that part, then trim it in the air to level flight at 1/2 throttle. Following that I will practise approaches again and again and again - I may get a big roll of something to use as a runway out there to avoid having to go from the road into the field - that'd be a long walk! Well - I'm goin to bed! THANKS AGAIN! Now if I could just get that motor to run right - having idle issues there - it's a used OS 46FX, I'm not sure how good it is ...
I have another question somewhat off topic...
I have a very much new Thunder Tiger 50 Pro Heli Engine - I took it out and installed an OS50 Hyper after the first 3 gallons of Nitro - Could I use this engine in my plane instead of the 46FX, and do you think it'd be better/worse? Would I still have to use 30% in the TT engine even though the new application would be in a plane?
