Default RE: Weston Magnum R build


ORIGINAL: evan-RCU

It's one of the very first that came into the US about 10 years ago. Still flys great though it is showing it's age after at least a hundred flights. I built a second one about 5 years ago, stripped off the covering taperd the T.E. and enclosed the motor better, turned out real nice but on the first fligh I had a radio problem (range tested fine a few times) and she flew off at full power never to be found. What makes me mad is that new Weston .50 is out there rusted away.....
Oh ouch ! at least with a crash you get most of the debri back, i feel your pain !
