Bringing a 10 years old 3W 44% Ultimate back to life
Hello guys, my cousin and I are working on bringing a 10+ years old 3W 44% Ultimate with an old 3W 160 b4 engine back to life. My cousin got this plane as a gift; it was stored for over 10 years. The very first thing we did was changing the fuel lines and charging up the batteries to see if the engine would run. Half an hour later, she has started nicely and ran smoothly. So now it was shopping time. Here is a list of what we got so far.
-8x 8511 serves
-sc12 powerbox with 2x duralight 4000 battery packs for the receiver
-with sulvian smoke pump
-5” Dubro wheels
-Some wood to custom make a bigger rudder.
I will keep you guys posted as the project continues, for now; here are a couple of pictures of how she looks like right now.
