Anyone have an idea how these would fly with a 26CC? They seem to be about the same size as the CMP Giles 202. Had a 26 on the Giles and didn't do all that well. Would fly but struggled. Haven't had the chance to weigh the Giles but I think it's heavier that the WH based on the projected weights of the WH.
I think this plane is a perfect match for the lighter 26cc motors. I've had my baby edge for 4-5 months, perfect entry-level gasser. 3Ds great with plenty of pullout. CG easly within range by moving batteries around.
My Setup:
HS 5645s all around
HS 225MG Throttle
Brillelli 26cc turning Menz 18x6 @8600 RPM
Spektrum AR7000
1100mah A123
And the real kicker... All up dry weight 9.8 lbs.
Edit to Add:
The only way I will get rid of this plane is to plant it into the ground... And then I will buy another one.
