Re: SAY WHAT 40% for $995
A DA150 weighs 7.96. A 3w170 weighs 9.05.
And some of the planes are at 52lbs with a lighter motor? That's about 8lbs difference in weight. Is there 8lbs difference in set up to set up? |

Re: SAY WHAT 40% for $995
Sorry but your weights are wrong. The 3w 170 is actually lighter than the DA by about an ounce. The 3w is listed with ignitions as well.

Re: SAY WHAT 40% for $995
This plane is heavy, but it is also HUGE!!! with 3200 squares, wingloading is no problem, and the Yak in that RCU review went a bit overboard on batteries, IMO. I think that with a 3W 170 on tuned pipes, CF upgrades, and a lightweight equipment setup, you could get it under 50 pounds. It won't be a rocket like some of the smaller 38 pound units, but that 170 will have no problem hauling it around...

Re: SAY WHAT 40% for $995
Yup, Your right Garrett. I just looked at another site and they said 8.2lbs.
I guess I was looking at the 170XI here: http://www.3w-modellmotoren.com/engl...toren_com.html Last edited by Redneck Shaun; 04-08-2007 at 02:37 AM. Reason: Max is great |
