Great 3d plane

Jan 11, 2019

This plane is super easy to build, it took me about 5 hours to build, including glue drying time. It flies like any good 3D plane should, if you move the CG back it hovers very easily. My only complaint is that there isn't a great way to mount batteries. There is a little slot in the nose, but I wanted to be able to run 370, 850, and 950 mAh batteries, so I had to come up with a velcro attachment system. Other than that, this plane has given me the best bang of the buck of any plane I've ever built.

Keep it lightweight!

Nov 21, 2016

I bought one of these planes "second hand" and crashed it outdoor because to strong wind. So a lot of repairs had to be done and the flying weight increased up to 210 g with 500 mAh Batterie. After that I flew it indoor only and didn`t like it very much. The speed was quite high and the roll-rate was low. Hard to handle and disappointing in my opinion. I crashed it again and bought a brandnew one. This time I was able to keep the weight on 132 g only. I left all components away, that were not absolutly nessesary. I took the lightest servos, a 300 mAh battery and tried to save every single gram.
In this configuration the modell is absolutly different! Its flying very slow, is easy to handle and rolls fast enough when the CG is about 90 mm away from leading edge. Even I can do prop hanging maneuvers pretty well. You have to know that you need additional rudder input to fly bends with small radius. This seems to be common in indoor flying
The plane is made of depron. To keep it lightweight there is no alternative found to that stuff yet, exept mylar foil constructions you don`t want to pay for to start with indoor aerobatics. That means, that the whole thing is like a champagne glass, sensitive and damageable. If you want to reinforce an item, it will damage even more next time because of the additional mass. Thats the wrong way! Keep it lightwight and be surprised how great it is!

Model very good!
Advance rudder servo in front of the aleirons one.
Use light battery 2s (350 ma) and 15g motor with GWS 7x3,5
4,5g servos e foam-safe CA glue.
With this setup the C.G. is perfect and the flight weight is under 120g.

Modello molto buono, il servo della deriva va avanzato davanti a quello degli alettoni, va usato un filo di cotone leggero (dopo averlo bagnato e fatto asciugare) invece di quello fornito di serie ed infine servi da 4,5 grammi.
In questo modo il preso sta sotto i 120 grammi o.d.v.
Io ho messo un Hacker A1015S con GVS 7x3,5 ma su HK ci sono molti motori equivalenti...

Buona costruzione e ricordate di usare poca colla (pesa)....
