 |  Another QuiQue Python Finished!
This plane will be my 3D and IMAC competition plane for 2008. From box to completion in 10 days! The Python is powered by a DA-100. I am using JR 8711 servos on the elevator and rudder and Hitec 5955s on the ailerons. Fromeco lithium-ion batteries are providing the juice and everything is controlled by the new Spektrum AR9100 receiver and JR X9303 2.4Ghz transmitter. I am waiting for a carbon prop and spinner from Chief Aircraft and some FG stickers! I will maiden the plane this Sunday.

Looks nice! I've got a question about the Python, will this plane fly in a inverted harrier? I really want one, but I love flying inverted low and slow. Good luck with the maiden Dubd  | ||||||||||||||||||

Thanks! It looks like it is rock solid in inverted harriers based on the videos I've seen. I spent about 15 hours on the plane, which includes programming my radio. The plane went together quickly. Last edited by dubd; 02-26-2008 at 02:08 PM. |

Thanks Reza. I have not balanced it yet since I am waiting for my carbon spinner. Think I'll have any issues given the electronics layout? I have 2 5200mah lith-ion packs on the supplied battery tray and a 2600mah lith-ion next to the ignition per your instructions.

At least you can start this one without a fire extinguisher near by!!  I've got a 27X10 Mej if you want to try it. Dan | ||||||||||||||||||
