The back gear needs some work to be realistic to the real plane btw but still nice job

Can't you just put a piece of light plywood across the back of the gear to keep it from pushing back.

I maidened mine this morning and had a similar problem. Too much flaps on grass field take off roll created too much drag and couldn’t lift off. Dialed the flaps back to 30% and had no trouble getting off the ground in a very short roll.

To glue the sheets to the ribs I like to brush Elmer's glue on the skins and the ribs and use my covering iron to bond the skins. Heat activates the glue really well. Works like a charm on 1/16 and 1/32nd sheeting. I also use Sigment to bond the skins edge to edge. It sands like the balsa, not hard like white glue or CYA.

Idk if anyone will respond to this, but if you buy this for 179 dollars motion rc does it come so I can just bind a transmitter to it or do I need to do more steps?

@mikeygsrc 2 ай бұрын

Most of motion rc planes come PNP which stands for plug and play. This means you just need to add a receiver and bind and it’s ready to fly. FYI the $179 f22 is the 4s version 64mm. The one in this video is the bigger version ~$600 6s 90mm.

@mikeygsrc 4 ай бұрын

It’s a straight swap that’s fits however after flying a lot on it I’ve found the avanti spring to be a bit too soft. So I’d recommend fitting a stiffer spring. I ended up putting a foam block in the strut to add stiffness

@dinnes71 2 ай бұрын

I think you want the Avanti V1 nose gear. The V2 is too short.

Can this fly a 59 inch wingspan wood frame plane?

I’d say yes but depends what plane. It’s 20cc but not hugely powerful. Manual says it can do ~3.5kg of static thrust with APC 15”X8” prop.

This is awesome. Just showed my buddy at the airfield. How were you able to attach the F22 light to the Avanti nose gear?

@mikeygsrc Жыл бұрын

In the end I just opened up the hole on the light so it could fit over the strut. There is a small gap between the strut and the plastic mount OD. I just wedge a small piece of ply wood either side and put some CA. Bit of a bodge but holds up well so far

@mikeygsrc Жыл бұрын

@@JMaxRC thanks, glad to help. One other mod I did was to switch the rear struts as mine were toeing out which made it a bit unstable on taxing. Not sure if they are all like that.Switching them over made it toe in. doesn’t fully close by 5mm but I preferred the stability, the softer avanti gear plus toe out made it wonder on taxi.

@mikeygsrc Жыл бұрын

@@JMaxRC this short shows how unstable it was with the toe out on the rear. Part of the reason I crashed. Also because I didn’t put enough elevator. kzfaq.infoteTKp8toYZE?feature=share

Have you been able to test this modification on grass yet? Any difference?

@mikeygsrc Жыл бұрын

Yes huge difference. Now the suspension is actually taking the loads rather than the fuselage. No more broken mounts. I would say that the avanti gear is a bit soft so it does bounce more and requires more take of length + elevator to rotate but once you figure that out it’s easy.
