need help please !
 

I just bought a cessna 180 but this one is much larger than normal (over 4 feet long) i was wondering if the website i bought it from made a error. It has a 540 motor and a rudder and elevator but no alierons. Just please help me because when i search the internet for parts it comes up a small 2 foot cessna .

RE: need help please !
 

If you can post a link to the site and a brand name for the plane it would help.

A lot will depend on the weight of the plane and the wing loading to determine if the plane is flyable with the 540 motor. As an example, there is an 8' (8 foot) wingspan Telemaster that flies just fine on a 46 - 61 2 stroke motor (actually the 61 is overpowering the plane a bit).

if i send you a link to the website can you tell me another website that i find parts for a 4 FT cessna 180 or tell me what plane this is because i dont think its a cessna 180

540 is a good size motor and will fly a pretty large plane.It would be close to equivilent to about a 40 size glow engine.
What brand is it?

RE: need help please !
 

I see, it is a somewhat cessna looking sport plane from China.
Good luck getting parts, it is really a disposable plane.

RE: need help please !
 

not sure what brand but like you said it should run very good with a 540 motor with a 2800 mah nic battery pack

RE: need help please !
 

It isn't supposed to have ailerons. It's just a 3 channel (elevator, throttle and rudder). You got the one advertised on the page. I see it comes with a 4 channel radio. You may be able to add ailerons...

Ummmm just exactly what kind of replacement parts are you looking for?

RE: need help please !
 

940 millimeter = 37.007 874 016 inch or just over 3 feet in Length. As to what points this particular manufacturer picks to measure from, who knows?
The "180" in the name of the plane is the model of REAL Cessna the plane is emulating and has absolutely nothing to do with its size. A Cessna 182 is the same basic plane but in Tri-cycle landing gear. Cessna also makes a "170" version which is slightly smaller.(other differences too but not needed in this discussion)

Alot of these cheap toys don't last long enough to need parts but I'd recommend contacting [email protected] and asking them about it.
