Maiden Flight 12/28/13
« on: December 29, 2013, 11:42:11 AM »
Finally got a break in the weather (and the time) yesterday and said go for it.  A bit windy 10/15 gust but fairly calm in between. 

This machine is the real deal! I can see how you can get addicted.   Nice.  Rock solid tail, lots of power, gear mesh super quite.

Compared to my Align 500 dfc this thing is stealth.

Just three basic flights and check out. Sill in one piece and that is always good.   I found I had the piro direction set wrong on the ar7200 and that will do some wired things. Thank goodness for the simulator.     

Wife's iphone took a video but can't get it so I can work with it on my computer.  Have to figure it out later. I tried.     

Here's my setup

Scorpion 4025-550   *14t pinion  *Head speed 2000, 2300, 2400 = 30%-70%-100% RPM mode
CC 120HV
CC Pro BEC
MKS DS 670 Cyclic 6v
MKS HBL 980 Tail  6v
AR7200BX
Rail 556
Rail 96
Pulse Ultra...2600 6s  45c x 2
