Default RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread

Those William's Bros. wheels are $26 a pair. They sure look cool. I'm very tempted because of the scale looks alone.

I'm really digging the challenges and loving the smooth, gracefulness of the way it flies.

Steve, I have a feeling that your Saito 72 might not be enough to give a 9.5 lb. plane the oomph it needs. Then again, you did say you have unlimited vertical. My Saito 82 seems just enough.

On second thought
...have you tried a 14x6 or 15x4 APC...the 14x5 isn't listed in the Saito prop recommendations

Which of the 8 bipes flies the best and why ...in what areas and how does the Camel lack flying qualities??
