FS: Chimera Flying Wing - Pro Kits

Unread post by MarkL » Wed Mar 09, 2016 12:45 pm

I have 2 Chimera Flying Wing - Pro Kits in stock I got in over a year ago now when they first came out and never got around to doing the builds or posting them for sale. They are now going up for sale to clear them out and make room in the shop.

I'm asking $175CAD cash or $300 if you want them both. (List price on these are around $155-175USD)

These are the Pro kits as outlined below, new in the box. No electronics/power system.

The Chimera, created by Alex (IBCrazy). An FPV wing with a different sense of flight than you'd expect. While it is quite fast (up to 95mph), it's not a speed ship... it is an endurance plane.

Specifications
Top (recommended) speed - 95mph
Battery: 2X 3S 4000 Lipo
Range: 35 miles round trip
Flight time: 45 minutes
AUW: 1.8Kg (just under 4 lbs) with video gear
Solid wood ailerons (not coroplast!)

Both the PRO and Standard version come with the following:
Airplane frame
Laminating film
2 tubes of adhesive
Motor mounts
Solid wood elevons
4 fiberglass spars
Winglets

The Pro comes with these extras:
Side by side GoPro/camera case
Midwing Stabilizers (minimizes tail-wag)
Landing skids
Control linkages
Control horns
Servo extensions

What gear to use? (from Ibcrazy himself)

Motor: I recommend a 400-600 Watt motor. More power is fun, but anything over 700Watts is more than you need with this airplane and will reduce flight times. I personally use a 3015 - 1640kv and 8X prop. A large 1500 kV and 9X5 or 9X6 would do well also.

Servos: The pro has cuts for 12 gram metal gear servos (I like the Corona 939MG's, personally). However a larger servo can be beneficial such as the Hitec HS82MG. I recommend a metal gear servo as the elevons are solid wood and can strip a servo in a wreck.

Average flight expectations:
Weight: 2kG (4.2lbs)
Range: 50km (35 miles)
Speed: 110km/h (75mph)
Distance: 60km (40 miles) round trip
Batteries: 2X 3S 4000mAh Lipo
