Banana Hobby B-2 Flight

This is the Banana Hobby B-2 that we have recently modified. The first flight wasnt so well, but after a few changes, and a new ESC, it flew great! A gyro on the yaw helps a LOT!
No music to this one, sorry.
Enjoy!

Hey - just maidened my B-2, and BOY, talk about glitches on the motors! Barely made it down for a hard landing... video coming up soon... Do you think they're too small and can't take the load, or that they're just crap? Shouldn't 40A be enough? Hope you can reply although it's an "old" vid.

@Bing80 , Hey dude,

Im not really sure on exactly the type of ESC used on this bird, but Im sure it was a larger than stock one. It is a lot of load for the 40A on two motors, but Im not sure on what the modds specifically were. Good Luck!

[ragingbullsht]

please don't apologize for not adding music...also what did you replace the stock ESC with? Have this same plane but hesitant to try it. Looks great though!!!

[Tjetfire]

Im not exactly sure, but I know that it was a larger ESC. Maybe a 65Amp, not sure. Probrably just anything larger than the original one

Nice indeed Tj! but how does the gyro control yaw ? with the fans?

[Tjetfire]

There are split "ailerons" on the ends which act as drag rudders. You can see them moving in the beginning of the vid

Hi there, just stumbled over your video, nice work, thinking about buying one myself...what did you guys change?...thinking about handlaunching, without any gear installed to loose some weight, and i was thinking about a gyro too, what kind of lipo did you use and did it fly well with the Cog according to the manual, would be very helpfull, hope she still flys :)

Banana Hobbies totally sucks..........do not buy from them their customer service is non existent. They will mess you up totally.just check all their BAD reviews! Don't be like me and get lulled in with their low prices. Manufacturers will not even list them as a place you can purchase their goods from!

Great job , well done , but may i ask why gyro , i believe you have enough expo on the drag rudder will do same . i,m getting mine this week .and i,ll try to see what is the probs , i think expo will do just fine . let you know when i fly mine .

[houstonderk]

no music is better IMHO

With the shape that plane has, especially in flight, do you ever get briefly confused as to wether it's comming or going? Level or inverted? Without a tail, it's got to be difficult in a way that no other RC is to fly.

After reading bad foam jet reviews its nice to see what they are capable of in the hands of a competant pilot who DOESN"T horse it off into a vertical climb.

Theres too many "modellers" buying these jets who just don't have the experience building or ability to fly a jet.

Good job.

Maybe you should glue some vertical stabs on the sides of the wings?
