 :hatsoff: Thanks a ton Ashta Sir,

We were about to try with 3S yesterday but because of high winds and broken landing gear, could not try.

I have 3S 1800mah and 2200mah Turnigy batteries only, 1800mah is 150gms and 2200mah is 173gms. Will this motor be able to pull the heavy batteries.

Ashta

You can't be first because you do not know!

Amit no update from long time.....what is next ??

Are you comming with another RC Plane or same RC Plane with few modifications ??
HSP 1/10 Nitro Tyrannosaurus Off-Road Truck
Thunder Tiger 1/10 SSK V2 Nitro Truck with Radio
HK-300 3 Channel 2.4ghz FHSS Ground Radio
Turnigy 9x 8-Channel
HK-250GT

Wow, Amit, your plane looks so much like my first build! Good job!  {:)}

In my later builds, I used a 240W motor with a 3s 1200 mAh LiPo. Truly powerful and light setup. Also completely removing the landing wheels and replacing with a depron/ HD thermocol belly also helps reduce a lot of weight! 

And after my first few builds I completely shifted to coroplast. It's a great material to work with and is low cost and crash proof!

Are you working on a new bird right now?

Hi Gaurav / Swapnil,

My good old days are over...Wifey and children are back from their summer vacation  :), so finding it hard taking out enough time for building. This plane flew but it was under powered.

Could not follow Ashta Sir's advice as the ESC and battery connectors were all for 2S and I dont have XT60 connector and thicker silicon wire.

I am making some modifications on my build using same wing, more powerful power setup (A2212/13 1000KV motor, 30AMP ESC) and 3S 1800/2200mah battery. Trying for pusher plan. Please have a look at the pics.

Thanks, Swapnil .... so far so good... enjoying every minute spent on RC hobby. Coro is good, I ordered Flying Buggle so that would be my first experience with Coro. I also got a GWS Slow Stick from Lance so will be flying Slow Stick on Sundays with Lance.

This weeks flying was also interrupted by high winds, Slow Stick flown well but Lance crashed one of his plane, propeller broke and another one landed on a tree with elevator broken, too windy like dust storms. He went up to the upper branches of the tree to get the plane back.
