Anybody out there have any experience with this airplane? I have two of the 35%ers and am wondering why I would need a 10 channel radio at a minimum (according to the docs)? It would seem a 9 channel with a power box of some sort would handle it.

Hi Gary, I have this plane and I am using the power box 40/24 comp. and 2 319dps rx with no problems. I have all Hitec 7955 servos, 2 in each wing, one on each elevator, 3 for rudder. |

Shoot.......you can fly this plane on a DX-7 with no problems.

Gentlemen, many many thanks for the replies! Just ordered one (Chief has a red one in stock). I trashed my Carden 300 yesterday and I'm having trouble convincing myself to order up another one just yet. So much money, so many pieces! I'm especially encouraged that I don't have to go with 6 servoes in the wings. Thanks again. Gary |
