Do you include the ailerons if you talk about full flaps or really only the flaps? I flew mine today for the maiden and I came in way faster than you.. but in the beginning it‘s the safer way to land at higher speed and then from time to time you get a feeling how slow you can go before it gets critical.
@@JoshuaRütsch congratulations on your maiden. By full flaps I mean landings flap position. Ailerons setup normally. To get the speed down I found it important to get the nose high attitude early on in the landing approach and balance throttle and elevator to keep nose high but control descent.
@@mikeygsrc Thanks, it flew nicely and I‘m looking forward to get more familiar with the jet. Landing in a high-alpha way will be the next thing to try. How much air time do you usually get with one lipo pack? For the maiden I’ve set the timer to 3 min and had only 42% left in both of my 4cell 5000mAh packs.. quite short flight time..
Great work keeping her moving on the grass. Looks great!
Thanks 🙏 so happy with this jet flies great
Hi. Did u use flaps on those very slow landing attempts?
Yes was using full flaps for the landings/touch and go. Full flaps helps to really slow it down.

Did you do any mods for it to handle grass ops
Yes. main mods was to install a strut brace. You can find a file to 3dprint from the motion rc website or you can just make it from wood.
