yeah the original estes fire bug sucked it didnt even run on a battery you charged a capacitor and it lasted for about 30 secs and makes a really annoying screaching noise when charged i would admit the aerodynamic properties of the estes firebug are sweet the battery life of it sucks ass i want to know how he converted the nano engine on to the estes without breaking it b/c of how flimsy it is
Takes delicacy and alot of patience. Took me about 20 minutes just to hook up the rudder actuator wires because I broke them off the receiver. Soldering a wire that is thinner then a piece of hair is tough, and on top of really brittle foam is even worse. But it is possible and the end result is worth it.
It had a cruddy setup (motor, RX, TX.) and didn't really fly that good. By replacing the original setup withthe Nano Hawk setup and making a new nose it flies like what you see in the video :D
Se eu comprar um desses, o piloto vem junto?

It flies with it's nose pitched up because the CG is set more to the tail for slow and maneuverable flight.
