Aloy DPS series 70mm EDF, 10 blade (make shure it is balanced well)
6s 2650 mAh, 80 A turnigy plush, drawing 70 Amps
Added 2 extra servo's for ailerons in the wings (so total 4x HXT900)
extra wood at the sides in battery compartiment, and on bottom side at motor position.
Glass fibered the whole plane and used foam filler to smoothen (google: jepe jets :-)
Put on some new paint and decals.

Open Box Review: Received in 2 days after ordering. Undamaged and neatly boxed- original product box shipping box. Gray scheme like pictured. Coupled aileron and elevator through shared linkage requiring V-type mixing. Battery compartment large enough for 2 x 3S. Collet for EDF is 3.17.

INGLISH and Portuguese:

Excellent value for money!
Painting terrible, rubs off easily.
Landing gear broke on the 4th landing, by replacing the two steel wires piano.

Excellent glide.
Lands at very low speed.
Many command to fly. Put enough in exponential ailerons.
Flying back very smooth.
CG at 10 cm from the edge of the wing.
I used battery 1800mAh 4S motor Turnigy 2836 3200kv for 70mm turbine in it, ficoau great.
It flies slow with battery 1800mAh 3S but flies.
Flight time with Battery 1600mAh 4S is exactly 5 minutes, no more.
Very good.
All the pilots found it very beautiful and easy to land.

PORTUGUESE:

Excelente custo benefcio!
Pintura pssima, tinta sai com facilidade.
Trem de pouso se quebrou no 4 pouso, substitui os dois por arames de ao piano.

Excelente planeio.
Pousa em baixssima velocidade.
Muitos comando ao voar. Coloque bastante exponencial nos ailerons.
Vo de dorso muito suave.
CG a 10cm do bordo de ataque da asa.
Usei bateria de 1800mah 4S com motor 2836 de 3200kv turnigy na turbina de 70mm dele, ficoau timo.
Voa lento com bateria 1800mah de 3S mas voa.
Tempo de vo com bateria de 1600mah 4S de exatos 5 minutos, no mais.
Muito bom.
Todos os pilotos acharam muito bonito e fcil de pousar.

We used these EPO platforms to test different engines, With a weak battery and the HET fan coupled to the ARC 28-48-1 with hit 113 MPh on the datalogger . With Nano 65C 2250 battery it goes even faster!Surprising stable with the ailerons linked to the elevator . Poor video on Youtube but you can see the speed! http://youtu.be/yt6FB4HUxkM

Great value for a foam kit.

great base to build a semi-scale edf jet. forget the base setup - it is useless.
split control to 4 servos - 2 for elevator and 2 for aileron - so you can mix up
any combination. adding rudder is a good idea - works very well. put rudderservo direct into side stabilisator. placing aileron servos into wing for direct linkage will be better, original linkage is a little weak, but works also fine.
cutting away moulded wingtip-rockets will add 2cm wingspan; build and add your own wingtip-rails and rockets ...
use a wemo-mini / het 2w-18 4s based setup and you will be pleased! great turbine-like sound and a t/w ration over 1:1 will give you the ability of vertical speedup. topspeed over 150km/h but also the thrust needed for crazy vector-like aerobatics. set the cg following the 1/3 rule will be a good choose
(1/3 of wing at base from leading edge). got 745gr with this 5servo wemo/het
setup without akku. using 4s 2200 will keep weight less then 1kg and give cg
without adding weight anywhere.
adding tanks and rockets underwing give great scale look for display flight,
without for highspeed fun.

Hi,



Plane looks cool painted, but foam seems a bit fragile to me. Have put some blank waterproof coating on top.

Manual is poor:

- How should the sticking be done ??

Aileron and tail are together on one servo per site. Which holes to use on the servo ?? Should the directions of aileron and tail (height) be the same ??

- CG not mentioned ?? (ok, will take 10cm)

Used 70 mm EDF HK 3300 kV instead of supplied edf and on 4 cell 2350 mA and measured 60A (esc is turnigy sentry 60)

Need to balance EDF....

To bad that shipment costs almost equal plane price...

Great value. The EPO is very good, soft and not brittle, but the paint could be more uniform. Fairly straight forward build for builders who have done it before. I inserted 2x15cm carbon rods in while joining the wings. HK2839 motor, Plush 60A ESC and HK70mm EDF along with 4 metal gear servos. I also replaced the landing gear with the "Landing Gear Set - Shock Absorbing" - a smart move in hindsight. Flying of a paved surface, I first tried to fly with 2x3200mah 2S LIPOs in parallel(400gr weight) but as soon as it rose, it was evident that it was very very nose heavy. Experimented with a 2200mah 5S setup(360gr) and it flew much better but still nose heavy. I am settling for a 3000mah 4S (300gr) setup with CoG of around 10cm from the LE of the wing at its root.



Very forgiving plane to fly, no tip stall and can fly very slowly. Need to carefully setup the surface throws and add some expo(30) for the ailerons and nose gear steering until one gets used to it.
