RE: Great Planes 27% Edge 540 ARF - build thread

Hey Rick,

Tim (krproton) is the originator of this build thread. If you're interested in seeing finished pics of his plane, check the bottom of page 4 of this thread. I'd encourage you to...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

I've never heard of any flutter issues with the bipe. Like Zach said, the center section is uncovered and is never touched with a knife so it stays strong. The monoplane reactor uses 3mm thick...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

Zach,

If you try the 1000kv motor with the APC 12x6, let us know your opinion of it. I'd be curious to see what you think. Some motors I've seen seem that they should spec out great, but don't...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

I'm glad they took back your motor and will exchange it. I'm surprised that a defective motor will perform the same as one that is OK. Oh well, plenty of GP planes use the same motor setup. That's...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

Summerwind,

Did you try a different ESC? The Great Planes ESC shouldn't cause any airframe vibes. I've had an ESC cause this in one of my planes. It must have been the timing of the ESC,...

RE: what prop do you use for the Reactor 3D?

Great Planes now recommends the GP Rimfire 35-30-1250 for this plane. That, of course, changes the prop to an APC 10x7TE for the best punch-out and speed. If you're not willing to replace the...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

No problem Zac, glad to offer my 2 cents on the subject. I'm using the APC 10x5 prop for now which matches my "sport" pilot flying abilities. The all-around favorite should be the APC 10x7. The 11x7...

RE: Thoughts on Reactor Bipe?

I have first-hand experience with the reactor bipe and I can tell you it is really a sweet flying airplane. As with anything it's better at certain maneuvers than others, but I don't think you'll...

RE: O.S.55AX whos got what with what?

Sometimes the 55 AX works well, and sometimes is doesn't. Regardless of the fuel, I've got mine mounted in my reactor at an angle and it acts up at midrange. Some fuels tolerate it better, but is a...
