Default Re: 60% BH EXTRA, HOW BIG IS TOO BIG ?

Elie,
I am going to have dash panals made for our 260's. They will look just like the dashes in the carden's. Do you need one made also. It might take about 2 weeks. Call me or send me an email and let me know. We will get some pictures of our 260's and 60% cub up soon.
Thanks,
John

Hey Elie,

I am happy to see everything undamaged!! Whew, that is my biggest nightmare! Especially with these custom 60% planes with no spare parts in the US. Glad to see the new post, I am sure everyone will agree: 60% planes are Bad A$$ and are very, very,very BIG!

Wow!

BH

Default Re: 60% BH EXTRA, HOW BIG IS TOO BIG ?

there is gong to be 9 servo wires coming from the tail, 19 servos in total, I will do my best to keep things neat, I don't do that usually, as for the Specs, I have no idea, all I know it's big and the flying weight is going to be 99 Lbs.
The plane was perfect, those plywood shields are serving their purpose.
Mr Zang is probably already working on a graphics package, the Snap sticker will be on the cowl as usual.
yeah.

Are two Li-Ions going to provide enough amperage for those servos?

They should. Its worked fine on Biplanes taking 17 servos and this only includes 2 more.

Also he's using a Powerbox Royale (in America that would be a Quarter Pounder Powerbox)


Wish I lived alot closer so I could take a turn riding in that plane......its huge.
