Beware the size of gear to fit....must be very small(Posted on March 3, 2015) Do yourself a favor and buy the servos and motor recommended by Value. Even my 5g Tower servos are too big. If you want to use the battery up front the motor has to be small. 1.5 oz max. Turnigy 2826/6 2200kv works good with 3S 850 Lipo This is a tiny plane...keep you gear light and have a blast! |

I like it(Posted on June 23, 2014) Reminds me of my old Stevens Aero Adrenalin Rush. Quick. But the Clipper is faster and way more maneuverable. The bad: Missing control horns. Empty CG w/recommended flight pack was nose heave BEFORE the battery was installed. The good. Put the battery under the wing, esc and radio up front, and didn't need to add any dead weight for balance. Used two spare control horns for the ailerons and made an elevator horn out of some FRP scrap laying around. Leaving the battery in the fuselage and using tape to hold the hatch down. Went w/a 3s 850 and a 4.75x4.75 prop. Will probably change to one that spins a bit faster at lower amps but this combo worked just fine. Did not use a watt meter. Put some car body plastic on the bottom as I land on asphalt and that also helped move the cg back that last millimeter. The cg was exactly as stated which in on the forward edge of the servo hatch covers so easy to find by feel. Temp was over 90º at 4200' msl and it went straight out. Roll rate is one of the fastest I've ever had and I've been flying a loooong time! It can be tamed down by using small throws (I have about +/- 30º but I like snappy roll rates. Probably best to have them really low on your dual rate switch just-in-case. Speed was good. Felt like it was over 3 digits but hard to tell on a small plane. I just flew a 200+ mph pylon racer a few minutes earlier and couldn't judge the speed that well. I had fun flying it and will probably give it a good workout in the coming months.. |
