Today Fri. 11-16-07 .

I'm havin' Fun again!!! Going wild at another local school, It's all clear, nobody arround, & its a nice Day with very light wind! So I'm going to get Crazy Practicing 3D & Hovering.

Today I am flying my 4-CH 3D Trainer (my Beatup Plane Right Now), the Great Planes Fun Force Zero EP, it comes as an ARF Kit, I bought mine from towerhobbies.com
Link http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXPHM9&P=SM . It comes as a very inexpensive kit (under $30). This kit assenbles extremely quick & is so simple to do repairs on. You will need to buy all of you electronics but the kit does come with a geared brushed motor.

I added a Brushless Motor & 3 Cell 1350Mah Lipo Cell for performance instead of the Stock brushed Motor.
I bought the Battery & Motor from epyaya.com. I Bought my Brushless Kms kbsc18 speed control fom the hobby people website. I am running a Great Planes Electrifly GP 10 x 4.5 S Prop (or also known as 254 x 114 S).

Great Setup at 10 to 15 Min of flight on a pack.

*I also added a length of 1/16 inch carbon fibre rod to each side of the foam body & covered this over with clear tape, This has increased the airframe structure durability BIG TIME!

The Music on this Video was produced by me using the Hammerhead Rhythm Station, Thanks Hammerhead!!!!

Stay tuned! more videos to come, & maybe some flight school videos also… ;)

Thanks for Viewing!
Have Fun & Fly Safe!!!!

Went Brushless with …
Went Brushless with 3 cell 1350Mah lipo. Larger props will burn up the engine depending on your engine size. I think mine is a 20-20l, I am running an APC 10 x 3.8 Prop. I sized down on props a little at a time till I found that this one seemed to hit that sweet spot. Fly for just a few minutes at a time trying new props, you need to feel the motor heat, if it is too hot to touch after 3 minutes, then you need to size down to a smaller prop. This test can avoid mOTOR BURN Ups.
Goodd Luck,
RB
