Installed the power upgrade from FL used a APC 2bladed prop. Wow that 880 kv motor really makes the bearcat move. I use throttle management but full power for those low passes seems to impress the guys. Also using admiral 4 cell 4000 lipo flew 5 minutes and had 49% left in the lipo. This thread seems to have really seems to have come to a halt no new entry's in over a week. TOM

Hey guys, had a crack up with the Bearcat at Nefi and have to replace the fuselage. I'm looking for a spare set of Blue Angel decals that you may have, I'd swap you a decal sheet from the left over F8F's or if you want a set of the F7F Tigercat decals, I'll swap you for them, I have a complete set of F7F and a complete set sans Blue Angels for the F8F, anyone help me out ??

Hey all,
New to the hobby and just finished my first "real build." I'm still getting my feet wet with the Hawksky V2, finessing landings, etc. I'm about finished with all the programming for the Bearcat, but was curious if anyone was able to slow down the retracts for a more scale look? I've tried to increase the timing to allow for a slower deployment, but 8s looks the same as when I set it to 2s. Am I missing something? If it can't be done, I'm not worried about it. Thanks everyone!

I build a Flightline F8F Bearcat and it turn out very nice. I have left everything stock. I did make a mistake an put the wrong size decals on. I need to pull to large ones off of the fuselage and so I needed to buy some touch up paint. The wing decals are also too small but I have not had time to peel those off. Maybe I won't do anything.4 Photos

Looks good Tony, welcome to the Squawk.
I love this bird !! I started out stock and then went with the a 650 kv with a 85A ESC and the 1400 mm Corsair prop. Great upgrade when your ready for it. Had an incident at Nefi as I'm sure you've read and had some repair work when I got home. She's back in the air and flying like her old self!!

I had a mishap with my Bearcat yesterday great flight and on landing it the landing gear folded out the wing and it skidded to a stop. Anyone else have a issue with the gear? They weren't glued in very well at the factory I got some foam tac and will try that to reattach the gear. Tried to upload a pic but it didn't work.
