Hangar 9 Aspire Parts (Canopy...)

banjo_nc · Mar 09, 2012, 09:37 PM

Picked up a Hangar 9 Aspire (Purple/White) EP. Plan to replace motor with brushless. Looking for parts - specifically a canopy. Thanks.

I've seen quite a few posts for this item. I have a couple of Aspires myself. It would be easy to carve a form and shrink a liter soda bottle around it for a replacement. I posted a thread on this quite some time ago.

Also wondering if Sparky at Parkflyer Plastics has done one.

Thanks, I will check into it. Do you run the stock brushed motor in your Aspire or change out to BL?

Running the brushed motor on Li-polys until it burns out

What size lipoly and you happy with the climb rate? Most comments about the stock setup are that it is anemic. Thanks.

3S 1500 and 3S 2100 batteries. Climb is adequate.
