SteveM | 22-Mar-08 18:57 | This picture pretty much sums up how my R/C mod flies. AUW is 5.82 ounces, which makes the wing loading 6 oz/ft^2 (nearly as much as the MM Hellcat). Mostly to blame is that I have 3x110 mAh NiCd for the motor and 4x300 mAh NiMh for the radio and servo. |
SteveM | 22-Mar-08 19:10 | Why two batteries? The radio needs 4.8-6.0 volts and the motor needs more like 3-4 volts. I was going to use an ESC to allow me to run the motor on the 4 cell pack w/o over-speeding but CC hasn't sent me a replacement Pixie-7P yet. I am also thinking of converting the rudder to pull-pull so I can ditch the 5 gram push rod. |
SteveM | 01-Feb-11 14:56 | I was poking around my old photos and found this one. At the time this photo was taken I had no idea that over 1.5 years later I'd spend just over a year working for a company with an office in the upper floor of the building in the background. I may have to revive this plane considering how gently it flies and how little room I have to fly in these days. |
