RE: RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

SJN- That is the wildest paint job I have seen on a Formosa.

Most of the documentation on the Phoneix 10 I have read in the past did not mention being able to program the BEC. I just checked at NES and its write up on the...

RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

Hi Wayne

I set the ailerons for 2cm (20mm) . If you do not have dual rates I would start at 15 mm and increase it as you get comfortable. I set my dual rate at 70% of the 20mm for take off...

RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

Hi all

Flew with the astro flight 010 and 3LiPo's and was very pleased with the result. I do not think it is as good as the MPJET or the razer but was I able to do giant acrobatics and hover and...

RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

I ran some tests on a re-timed 350 motor in the Formosa using an APC 9/7.5 prop. The 8 cell 720 nimh battery really sucks. I only got 9 ounces of thrust at full throttle. With 2 2100 LP cells (...

RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

Hi again Wayne

RE: F3A Formosa ARF Park Flyer GWS

I would use 6 min epoxy sparingly or it will take a week to finish the model. The supplied glue is great for the supplied hinges. Mine came in under 13 ounces with the 720nmh battery. Re setting the...

I have just finished my Formosa and flew it stock on 8 cell 720 nimh battery pack. I also noticed much up elevator was required for level flight. I am trying to find what the thrust line of the motor...
