The Sbach 342 has taken the aerobatic world by storm since its introduction, its combination of stunning good looks and extreme aerobatic capability has made it a firm favourite with RC pilots the world over, now finally a Plug and Play version is available for those who want to get into the air quickly and with the minimum of fuss.
As you would expect, the Sbach is made from tough EPO foam, it is a really quick and simple build that requires no glue, the tail plane simply bolts on and the 2pc wings are a plug in set up, also ideal for transportation. The servos are pre-installed, the elevator/rudder servos being standard size with plenty of torque for aggressive 3D maneuvers. Also pre-installed is the powerful brushless motor and ESC, for maximum performance and efficiency, a 2 blade prop is supplied.
This fantastic looking Sbach 342 offers both the 3D pilot and sport pilot a very capable model with tons of performance and a whole load of presence, the large control surfaces are perfect for just about any maneuver you care to throw at it. This superb Sbach 342 will keep you grinning from ear to ear, just make sure you have plenty of Lipolys to hand, prop hanging the Sbach is addictive!
Features: Tough EPO Foam construction Proper hinged control surfaces Plug in wings for ease of transport 2 Blade prop for maximum thrust on 4s Lipoly Standard size elevator & rudder servos Pre-applied waterslide decals Simple and fast assembly, full instruction book supplied Seperate canopy for those wanting to install pilot figure All control surface throws and expo rates given
I can highly recomment the HK Turnigy Ultra-light wood propeller 14x8 ( Produkt ID: TRSP-14x8 ) After mounting you will never use the Stock prop again... Good upgrade, better performance and look ! Great value !
bah bem que eu sabia que abrir uma warehouse no brasil ia da merda eu comprei esse aviã*o ano passado e agora quando tempo comprar outro da a mensagem que a caixa é* muito grande e nã*o envia.... que sacanagem
i found the wires going to the esc have been pushed against the motor mount and split the outer sheaving on the wires shorting them out. So might have to change the esc it may be damaged i have heat shrunk them but will have to see if it works or not
i finally got out today with my sbach and to my appointment after two mins of flying the throttle wont go past half way with out the motor stopping some time when you throttle up on the floor after half way you get a funny nose and the motor stops spinning ????? is this the esc or is it not programmed right ????
I had one of these in my basket this morning, but backed out of the sale when my only postage option was a $50 ride with China Post :( Will this be coming to the Australian warehouse any time soon?
The way I see it, for a model this size and quality at my local hobbyshop, which is 5 hours away from me, would end up costing me almost twice that this does even with high shipping cost and it's delivered to my door. I don't even blink at the shipping costs anymore.
Yes your right Tekno. Hobbyking are selling this Sbach for less than a set of electrics would cost in a similar size aircraft build. I'm looking forward to flying it in a few weeks time.
when installing the horns on the lowest part of rudder should one horn be facing the opposite than the other? The manual isnt clear on showing the correct way. If anyone understand my question please help me correct this. THX ADAM
Problems with stock motor or ESC..?
First flight was nice noe problem, motor ok.
Second flight, when full throttle motor make strange noice and slow down.When I gave slowly full throttle motor some times work fine. Is it the motor or the ESC who make trouble? Timing on the ESC? May I have to replace both motor and the ESC?
I bought a new NTM 42-48 650KV and an 70A Turnigy ESC. The new NTM 42-38 need some job to fit the motor mount. I contacted HK about the bad motor / ESC, but they only asked me to send it back.... Shipping back to HK is more expencive than new motor and ESC.
Uhmm. looks like MX2 ESC problem. On MXs ESC tag shows TP-E04-0080 and is not programmable. Meaning that you can destroy your lipo pack in one flight in going below 3.2 V per cell. I had issues with Hk on support and finally elected to buy a red brick to replace original ESC. Works like a charm. Original problems are gone: Engines running full thrust then slowing down. Close throttle, reopen engines run for 2 minutes then slows down..Strange engine noises (like dc -dc converters) peaking up...Well you got the point, all you settings are right but you suspects something is not right.If you esc shows same brand as mine only place to mount it is the garbage can.
Take a look at the NTM 42-48 650KV,this would be a good replacement,on a 4s pack and a 13x6 prop it will draw 52amps and give 760 watts of power which will fly this model really well,it could even be propped up a little bit more to give even more power.
No,this is way to advanced,look for a sport model with ailerons for your next model,something like the Wilga-2000 would be good,or one of the Cub's or Cessna type aircraft.
Got the answer from HK people, just add some small item with the plane and then order can be finished. Seems they can´*t ship it straight from china to argentina when you order it alone, but they can when you add anything else and it is shiopped from hong kong.
i wanted the orange one but the black one was sent!!!! sorry, but this might not to be happen!

Same for me ! Received the black one whereas I ordered the orange one... What's happened to you Hobby King, is it the Chinese New Year ? Not used to such mistake with you ! Fortunately I didn't have a Sbach, whatever the colour, but I 'd have preferred the original orange colour. Nevertheless the quality seems good, good looking EPO. Hope to fly it soon.

Replace servos with MG and adjust control arms to get max throws. 14x6 prop will work. Awesome air frame
