The I'm going out flying thread 2016

[Snoopy1]

I took my daughter's 61" Extra and the Mini-Banshee out for test runs tonight with the new Hacker motors and WOW is the only word that describes the difference! No more sag after running a little bit with the Extra and unlimited vertical with the Banshee. It was getting way to dark when I flew the Banshee so just a couple of verticals and mostly playing around real close after that. Totally different airplanes than before.

FYI, I replaced a Turnigy 4250-500 with a Hacker A40-V4 on the Extra and an ExceedRC Monster Power 25 870kv with a Hacker A30-14L V3 in the Mini-Banshee. The other motors worked fine but, just didn't have the kick that I am used to with my gas planes. The Extra is running 6S 3300 45C Pulse batteries and the Mini-Banshee is running 4S 2200 45C Pulse batteries.

Make the best of it flying with your daughters. Have two built both of them a plane but the interest did not last long they loved the simulator but out at the field not so much, one flew for a season and the second half a season and that was it.

And no trees.

Not sure but I think @Pistolera always had a plane in the trees, not sure if it is not pistolera my apology if it was not he would like it there's no trees.

We're lucky enough at our field to have lots of trees................. but thank the lord they are all behind the you in the pits where you need the shade. Not a single one where you fly for a very long way.

Took out the LX tonight after replacing the Proflow canisters with JMB canisters. Wow is the only thing I can say! The sound is awesome and they are quiet. I couldn't believe how quiet they were. the performance is very good. I am swinging a Falcon 30x13 3blade prop and had no problem doing a double snap on a vertical upline. Not bad for a 44.5 lbs plane on canisters Short clip to demonstrate the sound at an idle.
