FLEW THE 41% WILD HARE EXTRA 300 - Page 2

lazyboy......I've been flying Warren Cross's 41% plane......it flies really nice and light. Spins and snaps stop on command. A very nice ARF for the price

How has the servos in the tail been working for you? Plenty of authority, major blowback? I've got one coming and just wanted to get your opinions.

If not, then I'll probably use a Seiko servo on the rudder just like I have on my two 37.5% Yaks. Just exploring options.

Thanks,

Gerry

This is what mine looks like after forty flights, The cause was a power failure and it wasn't the two batteries or regulators, maybe the single power box or single receiver? The plane flew so great that I have new one on the way.

Wow, that thing is thrashed! Sorry to see that!

Jack, that is one of the downsides to these, if they go in there is no fixing them Here is a shot of my first one, and it doesn't look as bad as yours.

Redundancy, Redundancy, Redundancy. Add another reciever in that new bird!!! Dont want to loose a plane like that cause you skip out on a reciever.

Sorry for the delay. The servos are working absolutely great back there. I only fly IMAC, so I haven't tried a knife edge pop-up or anything.

jackterrell · 12-28-2006, 06:38 PM

The new one will have 2 recievers without a doubt!! It would not be as bad if I knew what brought it down.

One thing that I did learn from it is the aileron hingers are faulty. There was way to much ware in them for no more flights than I had on it. It was the one thing that was stoping me from getting new one. I called and talked to Tom and asked him about this and they have corrected it and added bushings in the hinges. They also went to a foam core wing. After hearing that I said send it to me.
