YEP the air holes are there Gary . there is a radial slot , in the cowel , in front of the ESC , there is a 8mm hole on the right side of the motor cowel , there is 2 holes in the tail at the bottom...

Well today the rare bear had its maiden flight . hand launched at 1/2 throttle and off she went . it was too fast at 1/2 throttle to take the hands off the sticks for triming , and very quickly turned...

not good . was there today , and whilst the runway is getting long , it just needs its usual mow , which some club members do a thankless brilliant job doing . the rest of the field is 2 feet long...

waits for video footage ...........

mate no worries , i'm not there all the time either , theres no hurry , if you want it sooner rather than later i'll put it in the field box for you or leave it with someone you see often , cheers .

hi wayne where did you buy this plane from ? do they advertise prices , searching for a buying link with prices , no luck so far .

nice work . looking forward to seeing how this thing will fly .

^^^^^^ I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THIS MOTOR ON 12S , I'm looking forward to the differences in flight characteristics with this setup . not much on youtube with these low kv motors unless its on a ...

Im not getting the sebart , just showing the motor performance . Ill be getting the super n cheaper yak 55m 72" , 2nd. Best choice.

have a great day guys , i regret not being able to go , last it was great as a spectator. but i'm rostered on all weekend . the year has gone quick .

INTERESTING MOTOR , this will pull 90 amps on 6s with a 20x8 prop , 4.5kg plane recommended , 370kv . pretty impressive on youtube vids . my motor on 12s 190 kv will have similar rpm and will weig...

SORRY TO HIJAK THE THREAD GUYS . but i was thinking a plane this size i might be a little different , and run this motor sk3 64/74 192kv on 12s . rather than the g160 290kv on 12 s . what do you ...

OK GUYS . thinking of a 1.8m 71 inch wingspan 3d plane , as my next build , i currently have an mx2 57 inch 2.3kg plane with a 5050 580 kv NRM prop drive motor which puts out upto 80 amps 2000 watt...

yep i think i'll go with the sk3 192 KV, looking at youtube vids most are running 10S, A NICE 20X12 OR 21X10E prop might just give it some nice floaty charactoristic , and if i'm not impressed theres ...

thanks for the reply Gary , its good to know these temp limits on batteries , the dx8 setup instructions are simple , and just suggest receiver voltage readings and battery temps , it does say you c...

mate 8S will be spinning that prop at around 8500 rpm . my one on 12S WILL BE DOING ALSO 8500 RPM , 8S is a lot lighter than 12s but the 12 s will spin a 21 x10 . i think like you say 8s will be...

I use a foam tube that kids use as floats in pools . $5 at 2nds world. Or 2 dollar shop , they are hollow , cut and slice and they fit over leading edges for hanging testing etc

you can also buy solid foam cones from spotlight for a couple of dollars , just cut them down to size and bingo , glue the new nose cone on , sand to shape , and paint / or cover .
