Official Skynetic 1000mm Havok Racer Thread

[AceMigKiller]

Anybody else splashing custom paint on their Havok?
I felt like separating mine from the pack a little bit. Not quite finished but you can see what I'm getting at.

as of we don’t have grass i can land on, so i need landing gear. so i use 35mm foam wheels & 3d print the bracket that’s hold the wheels & have the right CG & glue it up
i can share the file if anyone interested

I would like to try out the wheels.. Thanks

[TaSaJaRa]

Had 3 flights Sat....Great plane. It launched just as you saw in the promotion videos. Could not be easier, 50% throttle, underhand toss and it tracked straight up without a glitch.
We will have to get the Radar gun out next time and get some speed test. Got an 8x8 APC balanced and ready to try.

Are those wheels on that thing? Lol. Where did you get those wheels? They actually look really cool if they are. They look like they came with them.

I hear you! And I apologize. Our European customer family is every bit as important as our Stateside customer family, and we truly are trying hard to solve the various problems inherent in synchronizing worldwide product launches. We'll get there eventually, I know it. In the meantime, we'll have lots of products to practice with.

Thanks for the update .

I was wondering if I ordered from the US what the ( no brokerages fees) actually mean ??

thanks

Thanks Alpha for the quick reply, we were feeling a little left out this side of the pond 😉

RG1416 Welcome to Hobby Squawk! We must have missed that previous post.

To answer the question, we had planned to have the EU containers available within a couple weeks of the Stateside container arrivals, but due to an unfortunate incident at the port, the first shipment of Skynetic Havok and Skynetic Shrike is estimated to be arriving in Europe around the late December time frame. Please consider entering your email address into the "Notify Me" field on the website, and our system will email you as soon as they're in stock and ready to ship. We'll also post here once we have a more firm ETA, and again once they do physically arrive in our EU fulfillment center.

Thanks for the opportunity to earn your business! We're working smarter to make future products available in both warehouses as closely in time with each other as possible, given the differences in shipping routes and transit times.

Another forum member asked this over a week ago but no answer was posted, when can we expect the Havoc to be available in the EU warehouse?

I'm assuming you're talking about the torque steer, and correcting it. Administer throttle smoothly. You'll be just fine. LOL

I wasn't cramming the throttle. I slowly went to WOT and once there it would have a pretty hard roll to the left. Full right aileron was able to almost keep the wings level.

That is crazy, so much power on 6S that the ailerons barely work.

Did you by chance get your new props that you ordered yet? Just wondering what results you may have gotten with them. Keep me posted bud. Thx

Nope. Tracking shows Saturday.

[Fockeflyer79]

I'll see what I can find. Went ahead and ordered 3 gas sport props to try as well.

Wesley Miller shows off his comfort level with the Skynetic Havok on his third flight at Joe Nall:

Special thanks to Wes and Lori! I recommend subscribing to their channel and listening to their podcasts for exciting, informative, enthusiastic, and unbiased RC content.

I’m telling you run it up with maybe a 7x6 sport gas prop and you will see a big drop in amps. On my efxtra I have a 1780kv motor and I run a 8x6 sport prop on that at 72 amps. When I put the 8x6e apc on there I get 95 amps. I also passed out when I saw that and this is on 4s. Lol The efxtra is a rocket ship with that prop too. The sport props just work so much better and allow you to run larger props with more variety I think. Plus they are much stronger than those thin electrics. Imo tho I wouldn’t go as low as the 6x6 only cause you will definitely issues launching and it just won’t have the power you are after. Like I said you will probably be happy running the 7x6 sport or maybe try running up some 8” like an 8x6 or 8x5. I have both of those cause of my efxtra and I’m just waiting for slow HK to deliver my 6s batteries and I’m gonna try those and if they are too bad on amps then I’m gonna turn up something 7”

[JamesonC]

Perhaps try a scimitar prop, like EMP?
