I got 5-6 more flights this weekend, I put on a apc 12x6 e and what power. It wold outrun the T-28 with the same motor and a 12x7 apc sport. Out climb it to! The P-51 is a little smaller than the t-28. As much as I enjoy scale flying the P-51, if something happens again I won't repair it. I'll move on. So if anyone wants to buy the broken fuse that is probably repairable(2 pieces), and a new wing from the second kit, PM me. Cover the shipping and about half of the wing and I'll ship the broken fuse and spare motor mount I have. Also a couple props that I never use and anything else I can round up. Rob |

Which ESC are you using with the 12x6 prop? Do you know how many watts you are pulling? I'm just curious because I'd like to prop up my P-51 but don't have a watt meter to make sure I'm not going to burn out the ESC. I'm currently running my old T-28's ESC plus the T-28 prop.
thanks! Quote:

Turnigy 40a Sentry ESC Turnigy Gold 35-36c 1100 motor Rhino 1850mah 40c APC 12x6e brake set for the prop. Max it would pull about 43 amps. The esc is good for bursts over 40a. I run this same motor/esc on several planes. It's been very reliable. I used a road hard and put up puffed Zippy 2200 20-30c (about 9 months old) this weekend. With this battery amps would probably be a little less than the 40c battery. Run 6-7 minutes and come down with 25% left. Couple runs I went about 5 minutes basically WOT the whole time, climbs, dives, hard pull ups. Lots of fun. I didn't have the cowl on because I forgot it at home but the motor was nice and cool, esc was warm+, battery was puffed! The battery would unpuff after it cooled, charge it up again and repeat! I'm hard on $15 batterys I know! 5 minutes of this is more fun than 10 minutes of easing around. I was most impressed by the very fast verticles. I usually run a 11x7 e prop which is no slouch either! For grins I came close to putting on a 13x6 I run on a Pulse Xt 25e. But it was the only spare I had and didn't want to risk it. There are some pics of my setup back a ways. Rob |

Just received my airframe kit. Its going to be my first PKZ. Till now I was only building smaller warbirds – mainly GWS.
I would be grateful if someone could help me with the questions I have: 1. I have noticed that airlons are a bit stiff and wonder if Hitec HS45HB servos I planned to use will be ok ( 1kg @ 4.8v and 1.2kG @6V) ? 2.from my other models I have 2 types of batteries : Dualsky 1300mA 25c ( 115g) and FullyMax 2200mA 35C (193g). and 2 types of motors: TR 35-36C 1100kv and TR 35-30C 1100kv. I wonder if 1.3Ah cells with TR3530 (total 190g) would give reasonable performance or should I go directly to 2.2Ah cells and TR3536 (total 295g !). I intend to use props in the range 9x6(7,5) to 10x6(8) 3.what is default down and left thrust on RTF models ?[/INDENT] |

Ever have one of those days where everything you flew end up in pieces? Carguy had one of those days.

35-30 will pull this plane around fine, I have a 35-36c and its a screamer. the thrust angles are already in the firewall. |

Damn, that is some carnage! One hour on the sim for each crashed plane is the penance... and a hail Mary. That would be tough to yard sale that much of my fleet and still smile about it.

I was considering a 51 or a Corsair. Couple of questions about the 51. Why is it only three channel? No rudder. Secondly why does it not have a landing gear. I dont get it.
I like to fly it on the simulator - it seems to be the fastest. Interesting plane. Cadillac of the sky. |

Only the Corsair was my fault. I clipped a tree branch lining up on final. Saleen hand launched the F-16 at about a 85 degree angle and came straight back down. I was landing the P-51 with the gear on it and and Lintlicker yelled "go around" right when I was flairing for the landing. I gave it full power to get some speed up to go around and it did a nasty torque roll into the ground. All these planes were easily repaired are back in the sky.
