RCPowers F-117 Stealth maiden flight

Again during that windy day (see latest Mustang & MIG-29 vids) I made the maiden of the RCPowers F-117 stealth fighter. It was not the wind that caused the crash but I forgot to switch to 40% dual rate ... So with 100% ailerons & elevator the plane was SO nervous ! And I even couldn't test the bomb hatch.. When it hit the dust the 2600KV motor made short circuit was gone ;-) Thank god for carbon rods (all over the wing edges). She's ready to fly again ! More vids of this F-117 to come ..

What Type of motor do you use? where did you get it from?

@sammac14

It's a 2600kv brushless outrunner size 2208-8 + 6x4 prop bought from RCTIMER.

i also had to dial down my expo on the roll down 30% in order to fly mine right. i even took it up on 10mph winds and it handled them well after toning down my roll sensitivity. 5 stars man

Listen JW .. if you can do better, just order some RC stuff and build your own foamy .. I'll give you a battery for free to encourage you right. We got a deal right ? Burg ;-)
