A really nice review. Thanks for showing the hand launches on 3S and 4S - really reassuring. Your comments about the set-up, throws and CG were really appreciated.
I found the holes in the elevator horns were too small and the clevises we rubbish - replaced the clevises made larger holes in the horns - fly mine on a wide range of batteries 1300mAh 4s, 1800 Mah 4s, 1800 mAh 3S and have been told they will also take 2200 upto 2800mAh 3s wide range - the bay is large enought to allow the CG to stay at 40mm - Nice - get loads of time , balanced at 40mm (CG) just the same as you - ESC is rated from 2 to 4 Lips so no real issue using 4S .. Thanks for the Video -
I found my elevator horns just had a bit of paint in the holes - a quick twist with a drill bit in a pin vice soon had it sorted out. I definitely prefer the 4s 1400mAh setup for easy hand launching and great vertical performance. I bought 4 batteries to keep me going !
Wow Matt , what a superb video (despite the weather) . The sound of the the fan unit is so realistic, it adds to the appeal. . What a terrific model. Thanks for the mention/ the. video . Steve
Great review Matt ... just wondering .. out of this, the BAE Hawk and T33 ... which is the best flying model in terms of stability, slow speed, agility?
For slow speed and general handling on 3 cells, I much prefer the Hawk to fly. However, the T-33 and L-39 are very nice on 4 cells. The T-33 and L-39 are very similar to fly, with perhaps the L-39 having a slightly softer stall .
Thanks. Glad you liked it. The instructions show 40-45mm back from the leading edge tapered fairing at the root. I found the stall a bit 2wild2 at 45mm back, so mine is set at 40mm
No idea, but all the other aircraft in this range run on 4s just fine, so I don't see it causing an issue. If the worst happens, I will just change out the ESC, however haven't needed to swap one yet after hundreds of flights on the Hawk and T-33.
Hi. The only parts you require are the transmitter, receiver, battery and charger. However, is this your first radio controlled plane ? (it wouldn't make a good first model)
This plane flies much better on 4s. That said, you can see the flight performance on 3s 1500mAh here on the video - quite nice. It will certainly fly on a 3s 2200mAh, but hand launches will be more difficult with the increased weight. I would also opt for 50c or better batteries. This little jet is a lot of fun !

Thanks. No problem

Just setting mine up. What was your C of G position and where did you measure it from, wing LE or front of tapered fairing? Thanks. BTW great video.

What was the current draw on 4S? Is it not going to overload the 30A ESC?
No idea, but all the other aircraft in this range run on 4s just fine, so I don't see it causing an issue. If the worst happens, I will just change out the ESC, however haven't needed to swap one yet after hundreds of flights on the Hawk and T-33.
What about the motor ? Can it handle 4s?@@ScaleMeDown
@@michalis5817 Have been flying it on 4s with no issues so far
Deffo needs 4s seen it fly on 3s and the guy saw mine go on 4s and never looked back.
Yes, I agree. This one much prefers 4s power
Hi I want to get this plane but I have no clue what receiver, transmitter and just assembly if you could say what parts you used I would be great full
Hi. The only parts you require are the transmitter, receiver, battery and charger. However, is this your first radio controlled plane ? (it wouldn't make a good first model)
Would it work with 2200 3s battery?

How about batere 3s 1500mah ... can use it ?
Yes, should fit.
Ok thank you for your information
Btw ... how about the arangement the CG so that precision... i'm in CG calculate
@@arie201203 Just fit the battery pack and check it. There is plenty of space to move the battery
