Way less voltage drop under high amp draw.

As power = volts x amps you can see that your servos will get more power.

The first shipment will be the pictured scheme but further productions may change.

We just posted the manual on our website along with a video and many detailed pictures. Please go and take a look! http://aero-works.net/store/detail.aspx?ID=302

The quality looks awesome (just like my AW 35% 260).

Love the fact that it is pipe / cannister ready. Like the cowl baffling and carbon reinforced pushrods. Love the sweep on the CF gear.

just waiting for the scheme

We have posted A new video of the plane flying at The Rocky Mountain Big Bird festival.

http://aero-works.net/store/detail.aspx?ID=302

Also the planes are in production, I'll post here as soon as they leave.

sprice50 · 12-16-2007, 04:25 PM

Rocco, thanks for the videos.

In Sean's flight: I was especially impressed at how rock solid it is in the inverted harriers and the ridiculous torquing tail slide at around the 4min mark.

In your flight Rocco: It looks nice in the rollers and harriers and I loved the waterfalls. Exit out of point rolls was tight! Great flying.

What were you running it on? A 150 on cans? Seems like Greeves pipes or a 170 might be in order to get a little more out of such a large airframe. I guess that is my preference. I think I'd go 150 on greeves.

I haven't been a fan of the stock scheme but have to say it presents extremely well in the air which is really important. Mark, it's growing on me

Now you guys just have to come out with a Cap 232 (not 580)... pretty please. If I preorder a 35% non-existent Aeroworks Cap 232 would that help get the ball rolling? I'm patient if I know things will one day come...

sprice50 · 12-16-2007, 04:56 PM

Upon further review of the kit contents, I am really impressed with the:

removable radio floor
solid ply engine mount
greeves ready install
pre-cut cooling vents
airfoiled carbon gear

This would probably take me less time than the 35% 260 to build even with the extra servos to install.

Waiting in anticipation for the new scheme! I am sure it is going to be awesome!

lomcevac · 01-23-2008, 09:24 AM

I see they are on the water... shouldn't be long now!

krayzc · 01-25-2008, 12:28 PM

kewl like the 2 servo cut out on the wings seems the tail has the same option lol

BigBird · 01-25-2008, 04:09 PM

Hey Guys you might want to keep in mind those videos were shot in Denver. Also in August where the DA can get to 10000+ feet. That means if they have decent power in the video, at sea level they are like homesick rockets.
DA150 on Greeves will give you plenty of punch. DA170 on Greeves would be even sweeter!! Awesome thing about this bird is the pipe tunnel is build for Greeves out of the box. You don't even have to cut the cowl. Just open up the covering holes needed and drop the pipes in. I saw this aircraft at the AMA show. Really nice and big!

StickerBiotch · 01-25-2008, 04:14 PM

Kind of like you Big Bird "Nice and Big"
