PILOT - DEAN COXON - DEANO

HANGAR 9 FOKKER D VII - EP,
E-FLITE POWER 60 MOTOR,
6 CELL - 6000mah HRB LIPO,
TURNIGY PLUSH-32 100amp ESC, 5.5v / 5a SBEC 2-6 CELL LIPOS,
APC (NITRO) PROP 16X8,
2 CELL LIFE BATT TO POWER THE RX & SERVOS,

IVE OWNED THIS OLD GIRL SINCE 2008,
I BOUGHT HER NEW AND FITTED AN OS 91 SURPASS III AND NEVER GOT AROUND TO FINISHING HER OFF, SHE SAT IN MY SHED FOR AROUND 15yrs BLESS HER - LOL

THEN I RECENTLY TEST FLEW MY FLAIR SE5A ON AN OS 70 SURPASS AND DECIDED TO GET THIS OLD (BRAND NEW) GIRL IN THE AIR - BUT WITH ELECTRIC INSTEAD OF NITRO !

THIS VIDEO IS AROUND HER 10th FLIGHT I GUESS SO WE WERE BOTH USED TO FLYING HER BY NOW,

DEANO WHO LOVES HIS JETS, WW2 FIGHTERS, 3D AEROS MORE THAN ANYTHING (NOT KEEN ON WW1 FIGHTERS) ACTUALLY ENJOYED FLYING HER (PROBABLY BECAUSE SHES TOTALLY OVERPOWERED) BECAUSE HE COULD DO SOME AEROS WITH HER !

IVE PUT 4oz OF LEAD UNDER THE MOTOR AND WITH THE HEAVY IC PROP SHE IS SLIGHTLY NOSE HEAVY, THE 6 CELL HRB LIPO IS ALSO PUSHED ALL THE WAY FORWARD UP AGAINST THE BACK OF THE ENGINE BULKHEAD,

I THINK ILL TAKE THE 4oz OF LEAD OUT SOON TO MAKE HER A LITTLE LIGHTER ON THE ELEVATOR,

DEANO FLEW HER INVERTED IN THE NEXT VIDEO WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL SO THE C of G IS NOT THAT FAR OUT !

HERE ARE SOME RESULTS FROM MY AMP / WATT METER,

RUNNING THE IC APC PROP IN THE VIDEO -

SHE DREW 2100 WATTS ON FULL POWER (THE E-FLITE POWER 60 MOTOR RECOMMENDS NO MORE THAN 1800 WATTS MAX WITH CONT 65 AMPS & 80 AMP BURSTS)

SO WE DIDNT USE FULL POWER MUCH OVER 6 OR 7 SECONDS CONTINUOUS !

SHE DREW - 84 AMPS ON FULL POWER AND THE ESC NEVER GETS WARM ON EACH FLIGHT,

IM USING HRB LIPOS (BRILLIANT BATTS) 6000mah x 6 CELLS, 50c BURSTS, THE BATTS ARE ALWAYS LUKE WARM (EVEN AFTER VIGOROUS FLYING) WHEN WEVE LANDED,

RUNNING HER ON THE EP APC PROP -

SHE DREW - 1805 WATTS ON FULL POWER,

SHE DREW - 75 AMPS ON FULL POWER,
