Wing Loading: Did much better than the Easy Star Wings

  • Trent you are so lucky to have so many big fields in America ! I can't find even a suitable field for my plane here in Singapore !

  • @MrRCFlyyer I'm sad to hear you don't have enough space! :( That must be VERY frustrating... What do you do for a flying location then?

  • hey what motor are you using in this geekstar ?

    and what thrust does it produces?

    and can i put this on my bixler?

    and what esc are u using?

  • @adit1001able Great questions! I've added that info in the description bar for you. You can use it on the bixler, but I think you'd have to do some cutting as this motor is an outrunner, whereas I think the bixler uses an inrunner... is that correct?

  • That is dedication! When its cold, I like to keep my lipos in an insulated container with a hot wattle bottle inside. Warm lipos are happy lipos, its surprising how much more power they seem to have. you should test it :)

  • @tomstanton28 I'll have to try that! And get a second hot water bottle for my hands!

see all

  • It's not needed to run when you hand launch. If you just give it a toss it will take off just fine.

  • @MrRCFlyyer Yeah :/, the same happens to me :/...I live in the city and there isn't a place where I can simply go and fly, be it people or trees. I'm jealous of all these YouTubers who have a park or an open field to fly close to home :P

  • @MyGeekShowdotcom Go to Our neighbouring Country...Malaysia !

  • @MyGeekShowdotcom : oh thanks a lot trent ! love your show and i am sure your show is gonna be an absolute hit !
