    The build was as easy as the quality is great! An amazing plane. The video does not do it justice! This thing looks fantastic!

    Make sure you cut vent holes in your fuselage or your top hatch will blow off in flight. They are just below the cowl & at the bottom just in front of the tail wheel. Nice post build & unboxing, looking forward to the maiden. Can’t fly mine until the snow melts up here.😞

      Good tip! I was thinking there were no air holes but plenty of inlet cooling. Hopefully I can fly mine tomorrow , Friday the 24th.

    How do you hook up the lights

    • @FatGuyFliesRC
      @FatGuyFliesRC  Рік тому

      You just need power. You can plug them into the bind port or any unused port like channel 5 where retracts normally go.

    there have been alot of problems with the top hatch flying off in flight. i guess drilling an air release hole somewhere near the tail wheel to lessen the inside pressure . id call omp to find out

      I an gonna put in an air vent towards the rear.

    Mine was the same way. The rudder was split a little bit where the horizontal stabilizer goes in at . I did the same thing and used thin ca and sanded and cut some of the covering off on the stabilizer.

      That's why we do these videos to warn others before they start their builds. Thanks for sharing!

      The belly ribs are a bit weak be careful how you hold the plane.

    Ya know whats strange? is that the only Foam Plane Company that produced a Super Decathlon was the Volantex Brand and i had one but the Motor and Esc was complete garbage but the rest of the plane was just incredibly awesome and well contructed...i think i will have to bite the bullet and get the Higher grade OMP Cathy and not have to do anything to it but fly it balls out....

    • @FatGuyFliesRC

      She flies great but DO NOT HOLD HER TIGHTLEY FROM THE BELLY! I cracked one of the fuse ribs by just moving the model around. Hold her by the wing only.

    • @FatGuyFliesRC

      Hook them up to a servo testor first to ensure they work if they do give the lights their own channel .

      The six s has a vector stabilizer and a better motor esc. Also a wooden prop.

    Nice Mr. FliesRC! I just put mine together and absolutely love it. I've subscribed and will definitely delve into your channel as I'm interested in seeing all that other stuff you've got in your workshop. Please feel free to check out mine as well if you're interested in seeing some RC stuff from Australia.
