PAU 36% Edge 540 Build
Hey guys.
Well there here and we started shipping them out early this week. Some of our customers should start seeing these towards the end of the week. I am starting a build on these as the manual has not been completed but will be shortly. Anyway, I am doing both the DA-100 and DA-85 for the builds. Here are some pictures of packaging and contents. I'll really start digging in a few days as things slow down. |

Hi Harv,
The DA-85 is pretty impressive little motor so I had to get one. |

Re: PAU 36% Edge 540 Build
Ok guys, I have some more pictures. First is of the hardware set. Next we have the goodies for the build. I am going to try and use a KS95 canister for the DA-85 with a 50mm drop header. The KS95 is not really the ideal canister for the motor as it's large and the fit will be tight. We'll see how that goes.
For servos, I am using 6 8611's for ailerons, elevators, and a single 8711 for the rudder for both airplanes. Power is supplied by Fromeco. 3x 2600mAh Lithium Ion batteries. Two for the receiver and one for ign. Also 3x Fromeco regulators and a Wolverine switch. Man I love these switches. I single HD switch for ign. Ken Last edited by Ken-H; 01-11-2008 at 12:04 AM. |
