Update on YF23 PAV3 Project.
 

Hey Guys,

I have updated my YF23 build log over on the Jet forums since I have both Turbine and electric versions of this aircraft. If interested you can use this link: [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4671163/tm.htm]YF23 Project update[/link]

Please let me know if anyone out there has any experience with this aircraft. Also I am looking for any cockpit reference but the Net has been a little dry for me.

Take Care

David.

Hey Guys,

The 65 inch version of Pav3 flys last weekend.

I now have a video ready; this is actually the 2nd test flight which was very straight forward, mainly just spend time to trim everthing out. I will put the first flight showing the radio hits tomorrow.

Here is the link for the video: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showt...57#post6277384 I dont know how to post movie files on RCU so this is a temporary link to the test flight. IF someone knows how I can post video's to RCU please let me know.


Let me know what you think

Talk to you soon.

Question: Is it possible to have an EDF version of the little guy there? Or is the thrust produced by most small EDF's not enough to sustain flight?

Reading the other thread it seems that getting an acceptable wing loading and balance on the small one is difficult.
