Can you throw in a free can of spam??? That'll really get me motivated to build this TL 60.

Anyone else in close competition with Dan ???

I opened my box...

I have my cores on the bench and the wing beds (top and bottom) are cut apart with stuff laying on top for the layout. not much, but seems I'm roughly matching the local pace.

Got back from my trip - making progress on the 60

Going to expirement on the power system. Starting with a HET4W on 4350-4S and a 6.3x4 prop and a 80A CC (had the 80A laying around)

Maybe maiden this weekend if I can get the finishing touches on her.

Dan

I'm thinking that Dan will be our winner. Looks good, Dan. Let us know how your maiden goes!

cut the bays this morning, doing hatches now.

got all the stuff and even built some ramps but I haven't yet maidened the 50 or tried the bungee due to family stuff over the last month. My oldest graduated high school so we did a lot of prep before the party and now we're doing the touristy stuff with out of town family. They are leaving on monday so I hope to shortly after that.

BTW, what was your AUW on the FS spanker?

Hi Tim. The AUW wound up being 14.8 oz's. Not too bad.

thanks. just ordered a FS spanker from CK to line up after the 60 that's on the bench now. I think I remember reading that you used the neu 1110 motor with 1350 3S batts. Is this correct? I'd be curious how you find the performance.

It is a Neu Razor RZ2500 The KV rating is 3850.

CK - this thing flies awesome

I balanced it at 9.5", had to add 3 oz to get there because I really didn't place the servos up front the way I should have. Used HET4W, with 6.3x4 prop, 4350 4S batt - amp draw was 47A.

One toss and it floated out nice and straight until I got on the throttle and it just took off, ROCK steady. Trimmed it out on the first few laps and opened it up and it had great speed (I think as fast as my 48" on 3W and 3S, which is exactly what I was looking for), still rock solid. After playing awhile took it up and cut throttle and floated it down, took an extra lap around without throttle cause it kept on floating. This thing is about as smooth a ride as you can get - Second flight I used the pizza toss with same success, the thing just wants to fly. Thanks for adding the 60 to your fleet.

Dan

Sweet you are the first Dan to to fly the 60 it was a total beta , but I knew it would fly great.
Dan do you think I should add it to the roster for good?
Dan send me your adress I am gona send you a 40 slice,One of my new designs that will fly on a mega 3 a cc 35 and 2100 to 3300 3s.It is a super slim version of a new 40.It should give smokin performance on dirt cheap drivetrain .
Thnx for the flight report.
