My New F3P Bird - F3Passion
Posted 01-03-2008 at 07:16 PM by 3D-Seth
Some of you may have seen the video I posted yesterday of my new F3P plane, if not, here is a link to the video and my setup.
Eflite Park 250
Castle Creations Phoenix 10 ESC
Spektrum Nanolite Rx
Thunder Power 2 Cell 350 mah batteries
JR 185 for Ailerons
GWS Pico for Elevator
Eflite S60 for Rudder (will be changed to GWS Pico when I get more)
Pull-Pull on rudder/elevator.
AUW W/Battery is 4.7 oz
There are a good bit of things I could do to reduce it more, and could probably get it to 4.5 oz or less with the battery and nonmilled. Milled, I could get it to around 4.0-4.2 oz RTF.
Going flying Saturday at the dome possibly, and gonna try some more little "gadgets and gizmos" to help it fly a little better as well as changing the shape of parts of the airplane (mainly rudder to reduce the little roll coupling it has).
Flies really well and will hopefully fly better with the changes I am making.

| | Where do you get the foam to build it? |

| |  I get my foam from rcfoam.com. Great service and they normally send you an extra scrap cutoff to go along with it. Its normally grey, which thats what I used to cut my fuse out of. Seth |
