Whoa, the weight of the plane is 290 grams and the shipping weight is 1395 grams, does it come triple boxed and lead lined? I'm not normally one to have a 'dig' at Hobby King, but that seems over the top.

That is because the weight goes by cubic volume of the box it comes in, the flycat does come well packed and anything else ordered fits easily inside the box, saving a little bit of $$$

i feal it flys like the stryker f27c , but when making turns you need alot more up elevator, it goes way faster in free fall dives,i prefer it over my stryker, i use 4800kv 30amp,2000mh it is little less stable the stryker but faster, little nose heavy with 2000mh, flys well in 15km wind,all i know is it is a good plane

Can anyone tell me the C of G is it close to the 95mm that Hobbykings flight report has or the 150 To 160mm that the so called build instructions - that's a big gap????
|

|
| |

Alan
(76%)
I can hardly believe they actualy did a flight reporton it, so well done HK. CG will depend on how you distribute the electrics. It is notoriously hard to calculate on swept back wings so best to stay with HK specs i supose

95mm would explain the "HUGE amounts of elevator" required in turns he describes. Suggest move the CG back in stages to the 150 - 160 to ensure it doesn't suddenly become unstable.

R2 hobbies has this plane but no EDF with it just a geard brushed motor with a pusher prop. It barely flies with the brushed set up. Put a in runner from a 1/18 car in the EDF (mines a 2500 kv)and a 30 amp speed control it will hussel. I will try to throw a video in the files tab here. See if it works.

Vuela fantastico, con todo el equipamiento genial y mejor precio imposible, con un poquito de ingenio se monta la turbina y se queda de cine.
Muy recomendable comparado con otros aviones del mismo tipo pero mucho mas caros y menos equipados.

The Flycat I got was EPS. High speed landings should be avoided and keep it light. This is a lesson I learned the hard way. Tails even survived a nose dive but the nose did not fair so well. Ordered a second flycat, at this price its just too much fun*)
