Lush! Really nice! What did that set you back?

whats the specs?

[jimheli]

very nice, will stand out well .
at the club today one of the members had a yak i think it was, with a 50cc petrol motor , looks like yours but his was red , he flew with one plug not firing well , but it flew great .

if you havent flown 50cc before you are in for a treat
i wouldnt fly anything else now - well maybe a 100cc

looks like the goldwing MX2 - good flying planes

[Si_B]

Yep, Goldwing MX2, JC 50cc engine. Spektrum digi's all round. Has a twin feed failsafe switch and some other bits I have not had a chance to look at. One thing I'm really looking forward to playing with is the onboard smoke system.......how cool is that going to be !!

[Si_B]

Flown lot of stuff over the years, but never something this big. Can't wait :smile:

Very very nice! I'd be too scared to fly anything that big. Helis can just be bolted back together. Balsa... not so much!

sounds cracking, JC engines got a good rep like the dle55's
what smoke system is it, i use the MT one and the MT smoke fluid is great - currently on fruit punch flavour

the trick is to set them on a mix with the throttle and then have that mix switched on and off from a switch on the TX

you ll probably need to put a throttle curve in, once you got used to flying it, as petrols have alot of low down torgue, also they carry more residual thrust on landing approach than glow engines, but the goldwing planes are pussy cats to fly( i have flown and built 4 now) - youll love it

looks awesome. loved watching the displays at weston.

You will love it Si a mate of mine had the same model it flew very well , 50 cc is the perfect size IMO .
we have had the lot right up to 170 cc but the only keeper is our 50cc extra awesome model enjoy it Si it makes such a nice relaxing change from heli's .

[Delarado]

looks a bit small to me mate :)

Very impressive!

[smiles]

Very nice,couple of guys at our club into big petrol sports planes always gets everyones attention when they fly.
