  • Tangent Alpina 4001

    Took my Alpina out for its maiden yesterday evening.

    Alpina 4001Once the shaky launch was out of the way (trolley not tall enough, so a hand launch in zero wind was in order) and a touch of trimming done, she did what Alpinas do best - cover vast amounts of sky seeking out pockets of lift.

    I'm amazed at how little lift can be used to full advantage with minimal effort!

    Specs:

    Alpina 4001 Carbon Thermik

    Span: 4m (156"

    AUW: 5.0kg

    Kontronik Kira 500-30 geared 6.7;1 w/18 x 11 Carbon Cam prop. KST/Savox servos, Frsky gear w/GPS, vario, voltage on telemetry. Turnigy Graphene 4000mAh 4s pack

    All-in-all, I'm mightily please so far!
