L39 Albatros 1/4.8 scale FeiBao/Cmodels. Special version with lighter wings and "elasto-flaps" type hinges.
Prepared for and flown at Top Gun 2018. Less than 30 flights total.
The model is stored at Frank Tiano Enterprises in Lakeland, Florida, USA.
Lenght 100" - Wingspan 77,5" - Weight without fuel: 38,5 Lb.
"Lotticat" color scheme enhanced with TailorMade custom decals.
Upgraded to Electron retracts and brakes plus original scale legs.
Custom deluxe thrust tube : carbon "bell", titanium main tube, light alloy exterior tube, just 0,60 Lb!
Composite Hi-flow UAT
Servo driven gear doors
All Futaba hi end digital servos:
9 x Futaba BLS175SV (all control surfaces plus main gear doors)
3 x Futaba BLS153 (2 x ventral airbrakes - 1 x front gear door)
1 x Futaba low profile S9550 (steering)
The BLS175SV are 7.4V powered, all the other ones have PowerBox V-limiter to 5.0V.
Superior Electron GS200 controller for retracts, doors, with sequencer and differential brakes control and steering gyro (programmable via color touchscreen)
PowerBox Mercury SRS with integrated 3 axis gyro
SkyCandy bright landing lights in the wingtip tanks' tips.
Scale cockpit with "Tailored Pilots" full scale entire pilot figure.
Removable scale ventral "antennas" and wing mounted "pitot" tubes
Two piece fuselage (just 4 screws), removable tailplane and rudder.
The model is perfect, no scratches. Perfectly balanced. Wings/fuselage servo connections are via MPX green plugs, but each servo may be unplugged if necessary.
A full review of this model is been published on RC Jet International 149 and 150; I can provide the pdf of the articles and full resolution pics of assembly and flying.
I may also provide the memory setup for Futaba transmitters.
No receivers provided; all brands are ok thanks to the Mercury SRS connection.
The model needs a 140-180N turbine and 4 battery packs (2 x 2S Lipo for radio system - 1 x 3S 4000-5000 mAh for the turbine - 1 x 2S 1000-2500 for retracts/lights).
THE MODEL IS STORED IN FLORIDA, at Frank Tiano Enterprises. Please write to [email protected] or to [email protected]
