New indoor plane ordered...

Unread post by Enforcer » Tue Aug 24, 2010 10:13 pm

I'm sure I will get bored with the Vapor, so I odered this little guy for the indoor flying season... and 4 batteries for it... and a little motor... and some of those, much talked about, "yellow" connectors (10 pairs for less than $7.00)

several of our group have ordered this one for indoor this winter

http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1159043

john hatt gave one of these as a prize for our family BBQ and I've seen and flown it several times. flies exactly like the tiny parkzone ember, but much larger. easily does figure eights in the width of our runway. loops with ease, and can be rolled with enough altitude (not rolled in the average gym though). looks like an excellent laid back indoor airplane.

we've added a bit of rudder trim while flying outdoors at our field in calm air and then sat the transmitter on the table and proceeded to have a chat. big lazy circuits totally unattended. in slow flight you can walk alongside it. at full throttle it zips along quite well. 25 minute flight times on a 2s 500mah lipo just fooling around at reduced throttle.

not for the 3d animals though. :D

john expects to have ours next week.
