the best C-130 ever...until now.

May 08, 2019

It's very nice & well flying plane.
But it's too expensive to it's quality & size, I think.
I disappointed on cheap looking decal especially.
But overall, It is good C-130....until now.

REQUIRED ADDITIONAL JOB...

Apr 04, 2019

Recently i received the mentioned plane and objected the followings issues.
1. Front retract gear does not close. HK shipped a new for replacement without cost.
2. It was not combined with manual. You have to download it.
3. Some spare parts not exist (f.e prop adapter or rear door), Why ?
On the air it flies like as a cloud, maneuvering easy with excellent responsibility and
over power thrust.
I suggest to every one to buy this great model.
Thank you HK

なんだかなぁ

Mar 22, 2019

梱包関係は問題なく破損はなし。
機体仮組作動確認中にラダー・フラップ×4個・リアハッチサーボが潰れました。
機体内の配線が抜けていたり品質は良くない。
なんだか期待外れだったなぁ、、、

RTFM first!!!!

Feb 26, 2019

Excellent scale representation of this aircraft. Not for newbies, but if you have any experience with Durafly, Avios, or similar HK planes, you should be ok.
There's an amazing rc forums site which will give assistance if you run into any problems or questions as you complete your Hercules.
Make sure you carefully follow the manual (available in pdf on this site) and don't go running the electronics until you preset your tx for the servo throws etc. that must be followed.

Just Need Some Work

Feb 19, 2019

Assembly in the factory is not what I expected for the price. I had a broken cargo door, dead servo and a bit of hanger rash and that was before I took the plastic off. Having said that once the build (and repairs) are done it is a fine looking model and is great to fly. It is easy to handle and the flaps make scale landings a breeze. I chose to repaint mine but beware the foam even after cleaning and treating did not like any masking tape in some areas and the paint just peeled off like cling wrap. If you are willing to put some work in it is a good model and looks very scale.

Drops Tanks!!!

Feb 01, 2019

It went together well but needed some minor modifications and a couple reworks due to poor factory assembly but nothing umcommon with most pnf models. It flies well and has plenty of power with the stock power plant. Most importantly you can buy yourself a couple of the army men green plastic tanks for $1 each at the dollar store, attach some garbage bag parachutes and have fun doing tank drops!

Rushed production

Feb 01, 2019

Canopy paint finish is poor and battery hatch fits poorly. If they can engineer wipers for the canopy, why not keep the paint on the frame?

Nice plane with some issues

Jan 29, 2019

Just received mine and assembled over the weekend. The elevator linkage rods supplied were two different lengths. I had to make another linkage rod to reach one elevator control horn. One of my aileron servo arms snapped on the end while installing the control rod. I had to move the next inside hole. Still lots of aileron throw.
I have flaps setup for normal flights, take off, and landing. When moving flight mode switch from normal flight to take off flaps, the flaps do not move much from normal flight. It seems the servos are too weak to make the 20 degree deflection. I can switch to landing and they will do 45 degrees with no problem. Then switch back to take off and they will do 20 degrees. Only when going from normal to take off the flaps do not move much. Probably will replace servos with better ones.
I removed the under carriage to see the wiring. What a mess, the wire is all balled up and had some tape mixed in with it. I could not tell what wire was going where. Only one control board was secured. the others were floating free inside. I secured the boards, untangled the wire mess and now I can see where everything is going.
My motors seem to be running in sync, which is good since others have mentioned theirs sounding out of sync. I have not balanced the props yet.
Rudder hinges seem weak, they allow a lot of side play. Going to cut them out and replace with better hinges.
The detail on this plane is nice. Looking forward to flying it after i complete some upgrades and corrections.
