- It's running a Turnigy G15 950kv motor fed by a 2450 mAh 35c 4s Zippy Compact lipo via a HobbyWing 60amp blue series esc.
For the flight it's using a 12x6 APC prop but the motor shaft is slightly bent,hence the horrible noise. A new shaft has been ordered.
It only needed less than 50% power to fly so I'll probably switch to a 5000mAh 3s pack for more duration than the current 6 mins. It'll also allow me to shed some of the lead that was neccessary to achieve c of g.
Nice flight brother 👍 Awesome bit of kit. 👍 Nice stunts man. 👍 🇬🇧 😀
Thanks. It is being prepped for a memorial flight next Saturday. It'll be the first year anniversary of the owners death and he never got to fly the model. His family wanted to remember him by seeing it take to the air. Aileron rates now maxed out so it should have better rolls
@@heady2008 thats a shame bro for the previous owner man. 😔🙏
Hope everything goes OK on the day then. 👍
Nice flying to say a bit of pressure not to stuff it, well done that man
Thanks Julian. I'll be happy when new motor shaft arrives
I was wondering if you were going to get out there flying again. The weather has been a bit challenging recently. Good to see you in the sky 😊👍
Thanks. I'll have more of the model when I fly on Saturday but this time from Hanging Hill as it affords better views
Look nice flight
Thanks Chris
You are welcome
Fly boy pulling some moves 😎
Only loops mainly as the roll rate was really sloooooooooow. I've now maxed out the throws which should improve matters. Will junk the landing gear for the actual flight on Saturday
LOL, thought you were flying a muffler free ICE motor considering the noise at takeoff! But there was no smoke (unless you have plans to write off a ESC?????)!
Will look forward to a quieter iteration next time you fly with the prop shaft in good fettle. 😁😍🛫🛬
On checking the motor mount I noticed that the vibration had broken off one of the X mount legs. All fixed now with a new shaft and custom brass plate mount that'll add some useful weight up front. Next flight Saturday
oh boy oh boy powered flight.. I love it. where is this place?
I'm just glad I still remembered how to fly something with a motor on the front :-) It's a secret location where I have the premission of the farmer to fly. The grass was nice and long to cushion the landing so it'll be no undercarraige for the scheduled memorial flight on Saturday
