Ewo,
What prop are you using with the J250 and what is your current draw? Thanks.

Heres the tiled pdf

Wayno-san

Im using a 3x3 prop, and a 3 cell 340 lipo
I havent a clue what the draw is but im shure someone does

I have used this setup for the last month or so on different birds with the same motor, it shows no signs of wear.... strong as ever

ewo

EWO, thanks for putting out the plans. Can you when you have time post a photo of the elevator links. Thanks again and keep up the great work. Tow Man

you are welcome

If you are not familiar with balancing one of these flying fuse airplanes heres a little trick.

without cutting out the controll surfaces
just cut out the top and side view and slide togeather , you have an airplane at this point.

Tape a quarter on the nose 3 or 4 inches from the front tip
Give it a toss, if it glides well then stick a small wire through the fuse and hold it up by the wire . if the tail hangs down ,move the wire back a bit about 1/4" at a time till the frame hangs levell .Mark this spot . Actuall cg will be 1/4 to 1/2" in front of this mark
you need to adjust the cg to the way you want to fly

Have fun with the plane , I have built alot of the F16's and all fly verry well

This is just the first time i have tried with the J250
It flys verry well too

ewo

I have to say you can hook up the elevators anyway you want

I prefer to use full floating elevators . But thats just what i like here are a few pictures of the newest version i started friday before i left for the camp

And i have a video
I am not proud of it but im going to post it anyways

ever seen an F16 crash tail first???????

Yesterday was much better (no wind at all and it flew great)
But i didnt get a video of that


ewo

i would love to see a video since my fffj df motor decided to die after 7 flights i would have to say this will be my next jet to build i have a nice invetory of the j-250 motors

Chris

Im uploading the video in a minut

I feel so ashamed, but i tried so hard to get you guys a good flight video. The wind just wouldnt cooperate.

thats is still in the works with the new plane

That link should get you to the video

ewo

great video you might want to adjust the throws on your elevator


chris

Chris
the elevator throws had nothing to do with it

you cant see it but the wind was terrible

ewo

yep EWO,, i know the feeling ,, the wind kinda makes it hard to fly with different planes,,hey you posted my answer allready about the ele. configuration,,& i see in the picks you did alerions too,, ok that was gonna be my next questions,, but i now have the answer , ok thanks EWO ...oohhh btw,, after the plane went down in the second try in your video,, i could see the trees blowing around some,,,

yea the wind sucks sumtimes but yesterday was beautiful here and i flew all day i flew my helis and 4 different planes it was a blast just love living across from a scholl im going to build one your jets i built the ff fun jet with the ducted fan and the ducted fan died on me with in 7 flights but i have a bag full of j-250 motors and they are very good motors for the price thanks for the pics and info really appreciate it


chris

After the last one broke the tail off i thought a little stiffening would be in order

NEVER crash tail first
