Fantastic flying Andrej, you've inspired me to buy the Cheetah R. Looking back through your video, I don't understand how you have achieved the recommended 55mm CofG from the leading edge of the wing with no weights in the front and the battery not positioned next to the motor. I have loaded 55g weights in the front in addition to my 3s 2200mah battery and I'm still tail heavy. I'd appreciate your feedback. Many thanks.
Hi Daniel, thank you. I am using a 4s 2200mAh LiPo on a stock motor and this propeller blades: www.banggood.com/A-Pair-Volantex-ASW28-ASW-28-V2-Sloping-RC-Airplane-Spare-Parts-Propeller-1060-Blade-p-1352351.html?rmmds=detail-top-buytogether-auto&cur_warehouse=CN On 3s the stock prop blades exploded in the middle of the flight. I have videos about that on my channel. Then I upgraded to CF blades, they too exploded on 3s and damaged the fuselage. I repaired it and went for 4s 10x6 blades on stock motor. This combo works great.
Hi Andrej, Is your plane available in the U.S.? It sounded wild when it went by on power! Very nice to see how you attached to the wing with tape. How do you get the tape off without taking some finish off the wing? I use the exact type lipo in my Excalibur but it doesn't sound like that. Your motor may be bigger.
I am not sure about that. I think that the Excalibur has a bigger motor with lower KV. My Cheetah has now a 10x6 plastic propeller (from Volantex gliders) and I am now running it on 4s instead of 3s that the stock plane runs on.
@@SyrellSnir Yes, the stock prop exploded on 3s. Now I am using this prop on 4s: www.banggood.com/A-Pair-Volantex-ASW28-ASW-28-V2-Sloping-RC-Airplane-Spare-Parts-Propeller-1060-Blade-p-1352351.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN

Nice location... Is that the stock motor? 🤔
SyrellSnir Hi, thanks. Yes, it’s stock.
@@AndrejSturm great flight... Did you change the prop or something to fly with 4s?
@@SyrellSnir Yes, the stock prop exploded on 3s. Now I am using this prop on 4s:
