Thanks! Fair question, but no - it was a different battery. We ran several more through it and nothing changed. I think the plane just "feels" slow because of the 4 blade prop. Also, the crash was a direct impact on the nose and didn't do the motor any favors. Still seems to have decent torque though. A bit of investigation revealed that the plane can take a 4S batt. Next time we're out, we'll spice it up a bit :-). By the way - I finished that Stearman I picked up of RC Groups. Now I'm just waiting for the wind and rain to stop. I'm pretty excited about this one... Cheers!
@@crashcopter6000 sweeeet! Look 4ward to it. I clipped a handicapped parking sign with the left wheel on mine while doing a low pass at the school. Tore the left gear right off & kept flyin! I was able to do a near stall dead stick one wheel landing in the dirt with no further damage. Just gotta do the repair
@@czflyer3947 I hate when that happens... Sounds like a heck of a nice save though!! You must have been moving along pretty good to fly through that one. Sorry I missed it :-)
@@crashcopter6000 wasnt filming unfortunately. Crashed my Habu 32x yesterday too! Dangit! Destroyed it. Took off tail heavy. It was ugly. No fuselage available either
1st... Well That L@@Ks Pretty Darn Nice! I Bought One Of Them Same Planes "Force RC - SunnyBoy" Broken In Two Just Towards Front Of Wing Last Month For Only $22.50 Soo I Figured I Couldn't Go Wrong, Complete w/Retracts, Servos & All...I Think I Can Just Glue It Back Together Since It's Not Broken As Badly As Yours? LOL Thanks
Thank you sir! $22.50?? Man you stole that a thing.... what a great buy! Check out Beacon Foam-Tac glue. It doesn't get any better than that... Good flying!
@@crashcopter6000 Thanks I Will... I Like GOOP Also But It Eats Some Light Foams On Like Micro UMX Planes? LOL PS I Got A Force RC F-18 Blue Angels EDF w/Bent-Crinkled Nose From The Same Lot / Day For Only $31 Both PNPs... ;~)))
Looks great in the sun! Lack of power could be a weak battery. Did you re-use the crashed batt?
