Power Upgrade
Hey guys, I got one from Hobby King, sans xmitter.
Beautiful little plane.
I upgraded the power pakage to a GWS 6 blade 64mm fan, ERC 2445 Motor plus heatsink, and a 40 amp esc. Using Turnigy 30c 4s 1300 packs.Got the upgrade from Extreme RC in Australia.Making abot a 1000grams of thrust.
With this package it is makin almost 2-1 power to weight.
It is really fast, ptobably over 100mph at half throttle. Very cool!
I put a carbon fibre spar thru the wings and thru the intake(naughty I know) But it has that much power/thrust, intake efficiency doesnt matter, also CF on front of intake and belly , to give strength on landing.
This is the coolest little jet Ive had, and I got a lot of gear.
For the $150 AU it owes me , I cant go past it with the Extreme RC upgrade.
IT ROCKS. No need to worry about sh%^$^$ty hand launches, with this much thrust it dont matter.
Ill fly again tomorow.
cheers from Oz
Matt
