hi i recently received a old airplane that has not been used for a few years it has no nitro n it and i am not sure what to do about starting it and getting it running
@davonizdashit Off hand I don't remember the brand. But they are simply standard servos for rc planes. And how large scale? If your plane will be that big you might need heavy duty servos!
@TheProPilot100 Can't remember exactly but the basic plane kit was around 150 I think. All told, to get going with all the stuff you need is going to be around 500, controller, fuel, batteries, extras and all the what not.
@josh71111 It is amazing hobby. It can get expensive though. Start out with one of those easy planes you can fly in the part. Thats how I started. The mini helicopters are a lot of fun too.
How did you make out I hope you got too read the rest of the info before you took it up did you have any seasonmed pilots out with you just wondering bye for now.
Good luck get back to me I sub d you ask me anything about these flown for years oh ya make a center mark on top wing front & back so U don`t have to measure everytime 4- after started get a friend to do a oil richness test to see how fat it`s running hold front wings & do a vertical test by going full throttle while tipping the front of plane up & down it must puke oil a little while lifted plus not slow revs to much bring windex & a cotton rag to clean oil off the side & wing .sub me 4 help.
CONTINUED depends on how level it is use wheel weights if needed it will lift it U can carry a half dozen eggs this motor looks like a OS 32 I had a cadet senior 2;
3- If U use mini hinges on flaps U fly way longer but for now do a ground skip only lifting the trike but make sure the trims are centered on radio once up CALM DOWN and set the trims so U have to keep lifting it up slowly and use half throttle once up only go for 5 min . first your nerves will be trashed to land shut throttle down.
Hello friend I have some absolute must tricks before you fly ; 1- take a 1/8 drill bit and measure on the right side of the base plate of the prop to the body U must have an angle on the motor not parellel left about 1/4 ; 2- find the spar of the wing, The center rib from tip 2 tip (underneath) make a mark on both sides CENTER spar make yourself a stand to balance it from these marks it MUST be nose heavy just past level this will keep the plane from flying irratic up & down to weight ; MORE
@animereader1 Thanks! Feels great to be a bit of an inspiration. And your idea withe led's is great. Night flying is an awesome idea. Hmmm..... And you have got to send me pics when its done.
@icedsolid Thanks, The scratch building will be a lot of fun, and a lot of work. That will be a solid series of videos. I am looking forward to that project. Once I fly this one a couple of times I will move on to that one. And pretty sure I want to do a military plane like a mustang. They look so cool.
@bokim09 Darn, It says in the book how far it can go and its pretty far. If the limit is exceeded it goes into safe mode and the plane reduces power and comes to the ground.

i was inspired by your video and i'm making my own! haha, though i'm adding about 100 led's for some night-flying :3

Can't wait for the scratch built videos. My brother is in the research process so those videos will really come in handy.

Cool, A few questions, how far can this plane be from the transmitter and what happens when you exceed that limit. Thank you.
