Discussion Aerofever Salto 2.68M

[kipecoul]

Here we are!
It flies and it flies well!
The CG is 62mm and i didn't touch any trims. the wind at slope is continuously at 30km/h and 40km/h sometimes.



the plane needs speed to fly thats sure, the tip stall is quiet brutal if you pull to much the elevator. But it flies nice and the turbulator is i think really efficient because it accepts low speed too but it looses lot of altitude.
the acrobatic figures are a pure pleasure and adrenalin, real nice et speed.
the butterfly are really efficient and allow to land in safe condition.

the motor is very efficient and really helps when you are in bad condition.

I'm really for happy of this plane, but i ll reserve it for strong conditions at slope and for acrobatic fly on the plain.

i 'll try to make some vids soon.

it's a short and not very good video (the plane goes too fast for my cameraman, and the with the sun in front of you it is not easy to find the plane with a camera) of the salto in light condition (100% pure thermal lift). The salto with turbulator at the wing and to the V tail, flies great in thermal, if you let him some speed and becomes an all around plane. i really like this plane, really tough, speed and with the flap really easy to land!

I'll try to make a better video tomorrow.

Nice flap mod.!!!

Mine one is still flying well after a couple of year. . . . I changed to 10mm CF wing joiner recently (it was a steel wing joiner). Lighter weight can help a lot in mind wind condition.

Here is the video I flew on last month. ( I didn't know someone was taking video for me ) wind speed 15-22km/h
