RE: Unbelievable Velox
How do you like the zdz210, what mufflers are you using. Interest in this engine for a 40% yak.
|
RE: Unbelievable Velox
Using headers and JB cannisters from RCShowcase. 3 blade Mejzlik 32x12 new style blade developed specifically for 210. Never had a problem. Best engine I ever ran. Oh, quiet as can be!!! I am not joking to say that some electrics at our field are louder!!!!!!!!! Power is great.

RE: Unbelievable Velox
Is your velox from a aerotech kit. Ordered a 40% yak from them they said they are using a 3w 200 QQ in it. Was going to use a da 150 but may lack some power, as this plane may come in a bit over 40 lbs. By the way great smoke shot!

Lazun, your plane looks beautiful! Great smoke!
Nice models. The pink one with the female pilot that is pictured on the site was owned by a man in my club. Very very nice work. THat 33% looks nice. !~) Thanks for the link!~~! Joe |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
Hello,
I have both the 35% Velox and 42% Velox and they are fantastic planes. More people are seeing this everyday. I see posts about the plane and nothing but good stuff. I can't speak for the krill other than I know its bigger than Aerotech and alot more expensive. If you ever want a plane that will give you the WOW factor this is it. Also Im on the list for a 40% Yak also from Aerotech on the december run. Thanks Dave Miller P.A. |

Sebastiano Silvestri said it is the best compromise between pattern and 3D flying in an aircraft to date. He is currently developing a Katana with Krill. The Velox builds a little nose heavy so keep things back.

Hi Lazun,
The RCS velox looks fantastic these days. Its great to see it flying again. I have put a picture below of the new Krill Katana which I am starting to take orders for. Seba plans to be at the master with the new Katana. Kind Regards, John. |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
The manufacturing of these kits are simply amazing. It will blow anything away when you see the quality. Krill is a legend in the composite business, mostly industrial stuff. The model plant is a thing on the side for him. His kits are light and super strong. Look at the ratio of carbon and kevlar in his kits. I know it is not a judgment of strength, but his designs are well thought out. How often do you here of a Composite-ARF falling apart!!! I here it a lot and have seen it a lot!!! Five times!!! And I am tired of hearing that people are not flying them correctly. If you cannot fly these things around and ring them out the plane is simply not built strong enough. Could you imagine Tucker worrying about his equipment? Sebastiano rung the Velox out at the TOC in Europe and you would cringe. Solid as a rock!!!

Hello,
I have the 35% velox from Aerotech. I have had it 2 1/2 years with over 300 flights. This is a great design from them. Mine has a 3W106 now with cans with Duralites at 27lbs I have unlimited vertical. Can't go wrong with this plane. Later Ted |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
The lines of the Velox are exceptionally beautiful.

RE: Unbelievable Velox

RE: Unbelievable Velox
My wife designed the tears and all the accents. If you look closely you can see she named the plane appropriately: "Insanity"
|
RE: Unbelievable Velox
Hello,
I think the Krill is like $3,500 plus frieght. Aerotech are kits and I think the 42% Velox is $849.00. I totally love mine. Its a plane that lurks in the shadows and will hopefully gain more popularity. Later Ted |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
"IF I HAVE TO ASK"........IS BECAUSE I DONT KNOW THE ANSWER.....IT IS NOT A MATTER IF I CAN AFFORD ONE OR NOT...IF THAT IS WHERE YOU ARE GOING WITH THAT PHRASE....

RE: Unbelievable Velox
I can't afford it
|
RE: Unbelievable Velox
Beautiful plane, but it's the wrong size for me.
It's Divorce-Scale...:D |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
That makes "2" for can't afford it
|
RE: Unbelievable Velox
Its a 40% airplane like any other. You can equip it as you like. This one includes:
ZDZ 210 JB Canisters and headers 6" Tru Turn lite/menz cut Mejzlik 3B 31/12 Slimline smoke pump 10 JR 8411 3 FUT 5050 1 JR 4721 2 FUT RX 5 matchboxes 2 4000 Duralite/Regulator 1 2800 Duralite/Regulator 1 1900 Duralite/Regulator JR switchs JR extentions Custom linkages Custom Graphics by Speed Graphics and Grafic Dezine All work together very well. Duralite packs are simply the best out their!!! I have been flying for 30 years and will never use or fuss with anything else!!! It is a superior product and most importantly their customer service is the best out thier!!!! The ZDZ 210 is a power house. |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
lighten up Frances...no seriously, I was just trying to inject a little humor. Didn't mean to offend!

RE: Unbelievable Velox
I just setup a 210 in a 50% Pitts -and have tried various exhaust setups -including the BIG JB cans.this one has the 90/sized KS full length pipes .
I spoke with Bro Dooley today and he said the 31x12 3 blade Mejzlic is a real performer . Is that your setup is is referring to ? Your are spot on about the power - I have had everything fro 150's with ful length pipe to the 200 3W and the ZDZ 210 on my test bench. The 210 puts em all to shame for power - not even a close race. |
RE: Unbelievable Velox
That is the setup. The 3 blade Mejzlik 32x12 new style blade was developed specifically for the 210.

RE: Unbelievable Velox
31" or 32"?- Yours is noted as a 31"
