HSDJETS Cessna 182 RE-Maiden- Post Crash Repair Results!
Okay guys,
Today was just a magical morning in Central Florida. Cool at 60 Degrees F and Zero wind and with a Large BLUE sky to enjoy! I arrived right at 9:03 am as I didn't want to compete with the early birds at the Club for a turn. I needed the sleep and rest after almost a full night of working and preparing my new member of my fleet, the 2000mm wing span Cessna 182 giant. The model leaped up with just 4-Cells using that 840Kv 35mm brushless outrunner motor and a bank of parallel, 4-Cells, 4,000mAH, 40C, Lithium Polymer pack place way up front. I replaced the test receiver (Spektrum AR6200 + SAT) - to- the (Spektrum AR8000 + SAT) and dual power feed from the CASTLE CREATION BEC PRO. Reason I needed the AR8000 as it has enough ports for the Dual Feed power from the external BEC. I found the model light on the control and very very forgiving because as soon as it lifted off the ground it felt like a giant trainer and just could not believe how docile and easy manners. One item that I still have to determine is why it sinks quickly as (not viewable in the Video) it came close to the field's edge and almost became a boat. Perhaps I have too much EXPO on the Elevator...hum..... "Or" it is nose heavy. Anyway, I used the actual wing antennas that I ordered from HSDJETS for this model but, I used the securing pins that I bought from ACE Hardware as I liked the size instead the hardware pins from HSDJETS. Please realized that I flew this model without any frontal Cockpit windscreen nor any windows of any kind! Those at the RC Club were very disappointed that this model has limited parts selection and commented very negatively about not being able to obtain the Frontal Battery Hatch from HSDJETS without forcing the customer in purchasing the entire FUSELAGE in order to get the Frontal Battery Hatch! Okay, here is the video:
