RE: Hobbico Quick Charger Mk II charging Li-Polys

I would think that the MkII would regulate the output power regardless of the input. Still, I like the prospects for charger. 90% charge is fine with me.

RE: Anybody else have a " Wing-Dragon"

There are probably ways to make the plane stronger, but it would add weight. I personally find this trainer to be INCREDIBLY strong. When I first started, this plane took an inordinate amount of...

RE: Anybody else have a " Wing-Dragon"

The trim tab is the "micro adjustment" slide next to the gimbel(stick). There is usually one for elevator and one for rudder in a 3 ch. system. Looking at the rear stabilizer assembly, the elevator...

RE: Anybody else have a " Wing-Dragon"

10-15 mph windspeed is max for this plane. The light wing loading is what makes it so gentle and slow which is perfect for training. You could certainly experiment with greater wing loads, but as you...
