The Epic was finished this past summer, and now has 25 plus flights. Takes a while to slow it down though!
To bad this model is no longer in production, as it is a very stable flyer. |

Could you post more pictures of internal equipment arrangement ( tank , radio tray , turbine support equipment trays , front LG install ) , also I am interested in recommended throws for control surfaces. Thank you Dragan |

Fuel tank mounted on CG. I'll get more pics once the plane is disassembled.
Aileron throw: 1" on high rate Elevator throw : 1" on high rate Rudder throw : 1.5" on high rate Flap throw....all you can get! Crow 1/2" with full flap It flies much like a glider and we fly it on high rates, as the control response is slow. |
RE: Epic Victory Build
Wow... Very cool... and your work shop is WAY too clean.

RE: Epic Victory Build
No longer in production? So, are there any to be had?

RE: Epic Victory Build
I had phoned the Epic factory, after many failed attempts to contact Rick Schramek. Seems there is an issue with the copyright of the design. The owner of the company was not real happy with me asking questions regarding the model. I remember a while back there was a thread on here discussing this (design infringement).
His words to me were" Just because you associated with a bad guy...doesn't make you bad". I inquired about the possibility of obtaining the molds, which were property of Epic. He explained that they were illegally taken, and the person is now bankrupt. You can fill in the blanks..... His last comment was that his company is in business to build real jets. So to answer your question...I doubt there will be any of these offered anytime soon. To bad, they sure do fly nice! So after this conversation, I phoned Piper in Florida to inquire about obtaining a 3 view for a Piper Meridian. (I had wanted to do a TP conversion with the Epic. ) The person that answered the phone was not nice at ALL. "You modelers shouldn't be stealing our designs!!!" Geeeezz........... |
RE: Epic Victory Build
I will see if I can get hold of Rick, he lives here in town and see what's up....
