- In this video I take out my 2019 built SIG Citabria powered with a Saito FG14c engine with a Master Airscrew 13x8 Prop. Had some trouble at first with two dead stick landings. After further tuning of the Saito FG14C engine the Citabria was flying well once again besides my many failed attempts of a smooth landing. Anyhow sit back relax and enjoy a eventful flight and landings of the SIG Citabria here on Bayona's RC World. Just having fun!
Come on everyone let’s tell everybody about this awesome channel, he deserves to grow.
Thanks a bunch! Growing the channel would be great but at the end of the day I am doing it just to share my love of the hobby and to share my journey of each build or flight I do. I do it for the passion and 41 years in the hobby. Thank you for the kind words and I really appreciate fellow hobbyist like you.
Awesome
I've got my Sig Citabria from 30 years ago. Built and flown in 1993, and it's still going strong today. I did mine in the same scale Bellanca scheme, except in Miami Blue. Powered by a Saito .50, and it's way overpowered with that engine. The Sig kit is one of, if not the most accurate and scale Citabria kit's on the market. I need to pick up another kit for my stash, before Sig closes it's doors, which I hope they never do, but......
Oh SIG is not closing. They are back up after the relocation. Majority of the kits are back online besides a few which is still out of stock to include the Citabria.
Yup
Hai I am Sathish from India i am your fan
Thank you so much and I surely appreciate you.
@@BayonasRCWorld may I get yours instagram id
Its a great plane, and your is awesome I have many sig kits and am wondering how this builds do you have a build thread for this plane...
Unfortunately during the time I built this kit I was just using my RUclips platform as a place to share a picture sideshow. Did not get into the whole RUclips experience during this time. So all I have for this build is a photo slide show and flight videos in the channel
If SIG can get this kit back in stock I would purchase another and do a build video on it.
@@BayonasRCWorld just saw on the sig website you can put email in for when they are available, I gear they ARE coming back!
Looks like you might nes to dial in som expo on that elevator and reduce the pitch on the propeller 😊fo some reason or anther she doesn’t seem to not o bleed off.
Yeah I got around 40% expo going to experiment with different props to get her dialed in better. Or maybe go down on engine and go with a Saito FG11 which is a 10.88cc where as the FG14c is a 13.8cc
Your landing approach is too shallow
with too much speed try a steeper angle use the wind to your advantage nose high attitude
creates more drag you can compensate speed using your throttle, fly it like a real plane into the wind.
