Iwas doing some testing on my plane trying to get it to take off in no wind, rolling on the street/asphalt and although the plane speed up and starting going pretty quick on the ground, it didn't ever realy wanna take off. It wasn't until later when there were a few gusts of wind where it would catch the wind a bit and then pull up and come off the ground (Idon't like this because too much wind and it's hard to fight the wind). The stock motor is a380 Motor, Weight of plane:15.52 oz, Battery: Ni-MH 8.4V 600mAH. When Ihand launch this plane it will fly but I'd like to have it get off the ground on its own. Does anyone know how fast this motor runs rpm wise? Should I try changing the prop? Can this motor take higher batteries without burning itself out? Should Iconsider changing it up to a outboard brushless motor+esc+li-poly batteries+new prop?


Right now I'm looking for something to do as my plane is some what dead, Iaccidently ripped off the antenna wire going to the receiverand I gotta some how find another receiver. When you take apart the plane, one should note that the antenna is really attached to the wing and the transmitter is attached to the wing as well with double sided sticky tape. When you pull off the receiver, you might rip off the antenna like Idid so watch out for that... Doh, slap forhead...
