Hi! I have patty extra GP. I have a smoke system, I built that with 2 bottle of water (1/2 liter) and 1 bottle for diesel (to burn in exhaust). I increase the pressure in 2 bottles with a mini electric compressor to 4-5bar. With a festo valve i open tube in 2 bottles and the air go into smoke bottle. from this bottle the diesel fluid run to exhaust and burned. It's very realistic. Only must use a trottle valve (conical valve from an old engine) to regulate the air pressure into gas bottle. With that valve we regulate smoke intensity. I use 2battery with 5el 2000mah and all surfaces 10kg servos. Bye!

You will need HS-5645's (at least). If you can afford them, get some 5985's or 5955's.


Only use metal gears on a plane this big!

No karbonite servos broke after 4-5flyght... The horizontal tail, elevator with a 50cc engine turn with high vibration and brake servo gear. I use all metal servos. Not digital, only metal
