RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Oh, and I believe I was swinging a 6x4 prop or something close. Maybe 6x5 which is why I needed the larger ESC and burley Lipo. Nowadays with the higher C ratings, I think there's way more...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Wow, I've been out of the Stryker scene for a while but after reading all these posts, I may have to pull out the old spare fuse and get it going. It's been at least 3 years since my Stryker days. ...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

What can I say...You're good because that's were the setup came from. It works nicely in the Stryker. I decided to ditch the traditional motor mounting system in favor of the Concrusher method. I...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Hey guys...it's been a while since I've put a Stryker together but I had two bare fuses laying around so I decided to get back into Strykers. Here's what I have planned:

Mega 16/15/4

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Depron,

Yes, that would be a Mega 16/15/4. The only bad thing about Reno is the altitude but I dont know any better so I guess it's all relative.

Oh, and FoamCrusher is right, the if I can...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

DepronHog,

Obviously, your LHS sells Himax. If you do some research, you will find that the most reliable and most well balanced setup is as follows:

Mega 16/14/4
CC Pheonix 25 or 35

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

You should try a TP 3S 2100 lipo pack. It's only 11.1v compared to your 12v 10 cell but it's way lighter and makes those vertical shots crazy fast. It would be nice to have a quick charging 10 cell...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Whew, I thought I was missing something. You'll have plenty of ESC with that CC60. You're right, just make sure you don't make expensive balloons out of your packs. Keep us posted.

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

a 6 amp esc? Is that a typo or am I missing something? I run a CC 35 amp speed control but I've heard you can use a CC 25 amp speed control with a 6x4 APC prop. Isn't a 6 amp ESC a bit small?

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

rino,

I ended up using an APC 6x4. The 6x5 Aero Glass kept cutting out after a few seconds on full throttle. I think the CC 35 was doing its job and cutting out the motor when it drew too many...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Mrfixit,

You will be fine dual rates. That is what I did before I figured out how to set my expo. In fact, I dont use my expo all the time. Most of the time I just use the shortened throw...

She flew AWSOME especially with expo. The thing rolled like a drill but only when I cranked it.

The elevons are pre-made balsa that measures approximately 1 3/4" wide so I had to trim around...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

Toomunsch,

I finished the 16/15/4 setup yesterday but it was snowing today so I haven't had a chance to fly it. It doesn't have as much thrust as the 16/25/4 setup BUT it is MUCH lighter. It...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

rino,

Yes, a 7x6 might be a little much for the 3S1P so I may just go with a 6x5. As for the elevons, I use 1 3/4" wide balsa premade ailerons from my LHS. My servos are HS81's and have worked...

Well, it's official...my new setup will be a Mega 16/15/4, CC 35 ESC, TP 3S1P, APC 7x5 or Aero Glass 6x5. I took out the Stryker yesterday in 25 mph winds and during my landing approach, a tree...

RE: Brushless F-27 Stryker

rino,

The setup I currently have in my Stryker is the following:

Mega 16/25/4
CC 35
TP 4S1P 2100
HS88 servos
1 3/4" wide balsa Elevons (a bit overkill)
