Default New toy

Im tired of not being able to fly because i cant get out to the field. The little foam mig i was building crashed and burned.


SOOOOO

I bought that and the thrid servo i need to fly it. I already have two li-po packs, and i might switch over to running the outrunner brushless bp-21 ive got.

Hopefuly it will be a nice little plane to fly in the field i have across from our apartments

succesfuly flown and soloed my hobbistar many times(with a TT .46 and a ST .75).Spent aprox. two mnths on a buddy box(we have a pretty hardcore training program at the club in beaumont...).

Im capable of doing most basic aerobatics(torque rolls rolls loops...... rudimentary knife edge, but i ve never flown something capable of maintaining a full 90* one.

Once i get back to flying more often with this plane and aanother im moving to te 4* 120 im building.

So this little plane wont slow it done fairly well?

first fly it as it comes it's a sail plane you should be fine if you keep it light and you can kill the engine and let the prop fold back for landing like a glider.unless the field is very large you may find you may need more room this is not the typical park flyer.you use the electric power to get to altitude o find thermals to ride and cut the power and spend most of your time just circling in the thermal till your neck gets sore then time to land.you may want to look at the gws beaver or park zone planes only trouble is they are not suitable for winds over 5 mph.beast at dusk when most winds die down

Aparently most places field is small....im talking at least 2+ acres. I may put the outrunner on to save weight, and i have the esc handy, not looking for anymore power realy
