Flew the L-39 with tanks on... Did three flights. Flew inverted low passes (2 ft WOT) Nice and stable. Did knife edge passes from horizon to horizon... And a couple outside snap rolls and one flat spin.... Battery was hot! (All of this in one 3:30 flight) with a Admiral 5000. Just floats in... Love it!!!!!! :Cool:Comment

Well, like usual I flew my state of the art Bixler 2, 2200mah, DSM2. Its one relaxing slightly underpowered plane that I can fly for 20+ minutes
Then the Phoenix 2000, about the same, depending on thermals, 20+ as well
Taking a break from glow the Gee Bee, Spitfire both with O.S. .52 four stroke and the Four Star 60 w a Saito FA100Comment

Yes! I have about 25 flights with it now. Mine has the stock 6s motor setup. Got her dialed in and loving it. What i like most about her is landing. Keep the power up and grease those landings...full-flap and air-brake, sweet! I've purchased the Freewing 6s 1835Kv Inrunner EDF. Hope to install and test that setup soon.Lon

Awesome. I just took mine out of the box last week. I ordered the F-4 9 blade fan to go in it. Same all the way around except it is 1750kv, I think?? :Thinking: So that should make it a bit more efficient... I love Iowa. Don't get me wrong. Texas IS Texas, but I love to come up to visit and eat brats and drink PBR!!! LOL Jerry
And the best State Fair ever!!! :-)

Let me know how the F-4 fan unit works for you in your F-15, I already tried that combo and didn't notice anything really different in flying so I'm curious what you think on how your F-15 flies, I installed the 4068-1680kv in mine and it flies so much better all around.Awesome.

200kv should be pretty noticeable.

yThats what I thought too but not in the F-15, it came right out of the F-4 and right into the F-15. That 9 blade loves batteries for some reason, at least mine did, maybe I should have checked the timing on it or something, wouldn't have kept it anyway, didn't like the whine that it makes, love the wooosh of the 1680kv.Comment

That's really strange, I bet the timing may have been set wrong because I find that the 9 blade is much more efficient than the 12 blade fans.y
