[rcFoamFighters]

Thanks NikolaGnjatovic! Good try on your english. Much better than I can do in your language. Sorry to hear your plane hit a wall. Hope your electronics are still good. Great to hear we have RC FoamFighters in Serbia! Keep on Flying!

Hi

Just a little question.

what prop do I need for the park jet?

[rcFoamFighters]

BERELEAH, I used an APC 6x5.5 prop on the EPP park jet. That was with a Grayson Hobbies Super mega Jet brushless motor and 2200mah 3S 30C Lipo.

did that thing go behind clouds?!?!

[rcFoamFighters]

Haa haa.. No didn't hit the clouds. Fun to fly up hi though.. Thanks for the comment and watching!

Breaking 100mph is not impressive, what is impressive is breaking 100mph with out the plane becoming a lawn dart :) I

@dalotel Also you should see some of there new foam planes. They are doing well over 140 with them in straight level flight.

[bbjsw10]

@dalotel Stay ancient like you dinosaur fuel powered plane. I have seen multiple electrics much faster than your 105mph. The thing is electrics, as far as brushless go are still pretty fresh on the scene. Give them about 5 years and there will be RTF electrics that smoke your sport there, Sport. Plus these guys only have about $150 total in one of these, motor, esc, batteries, rec, servos, and the building supplies try that with a nitro.

I used a 7x3 and a 25c 1800ma battery for a cool 40A / 500w through this same motor. I wish my 50A ESC was as cool afterwards........whats the deal? Shouldn't my ESC be more than enough for the motor? It's got a heat sink and is mounted external right in the propwash. I know the motor is probably turning alot of rpms..... I'm new to this and completely stumped! Someone help!

Thanks for the great video series. I am itching to try the thick foam for a build.

A couple of things I was wondering about:

Could you just tunnel out the whole center section of your top fuse piece and then mag a cover for it?

Also, do you think you might be creating excess turbuance and/or drag by using depron for your control surfaces creating a large pocket right at the hinge due to the difference in material thickness?

Thanks again!
