look what i found,

vertical stabs swept and moved back this will definatly help yaw instablility. the kanards up front look like decoration but would help with moving cg forward getting a bigger battery up front. not to my fancy though.

I had it twice. The first time I recovered I'm not sure what I did, but I do know that the throttle was off. The second time I almost recovered but was a bit too late. The damage was only a wrinkled nose.

good news

acourding to what i have read on here the cg is just in front of the finger holes. if this is the case then the new radjet balances very well with a 2200mah 3s battery in it. i did move the vstabs back but there so lite i dont think this would change much from stock as far as the cg is concerned.

The New pink Radjet comes with 5 mm cabon tube spar!

Just bought one. Awaiting maiden

^LOL - I see you have them stacked up, too!


Good luck with the maiden!

So what's the trick to making the stickers stay stickered?

I’ved used thin strips of tape to do all the sticker edges with great success
But as you can see I took off the decals. Pink was not my color

Thank you. Yes they’re all over the place here

Successful maiden today.

Nice little flyer, not a rocket ship on 3s but very enjoyable fly.

I'm not into my pinks but this one does look good in the air.

And for the price couldn't ask for more.

I have used a layer of PVC on the edges, just smeared on - so far so good.

On my composite ARF's I have used dabs of CA to hold down edges of covering.

Would love to know if anyone has better solution.

Did you fly it with 2200mah pac

I flew with well used 1400mah but only because my new 1300's weren't charged.

Next time out I will try the 1300's
