Been seeing outerzone.co.uk a bit nowadays

Also wanted a low winger aerobatic mid-size to practice some mischief with before busting my lovely Multiplex Tucan.

So adapted the Pilot Attacker 28 to corro.

The OK Model Co. of Japan which produced the Pilot kits and accessories was a world leader in it's time. I got 2 kits in 1985, a Piper Cub 20 and a QB 40 (QB for Quick Build.) I also built 2 QB 20s shoulder wingers from kits made by the late Clarence Pinto of National Models, Bombay. The Pilot kits were extraordinary; at a time when lasers were only seen on Star Trek they produced die-cut kits of extraordinary precision, that literally just slotted together!

I downloaded the plans for the Attacker 28, and adapted them to Corro. Changed the name from Attacker to Zattack, as the Boss said, Make In India!  ;) :giggle:

Maiden (this morning) was uneventful. Needed some downtrim, and reduced aileron EPA on low rates from 50% to 37%, giving about +/- 8-10 mm throws. Expo set at -40% to calm those maiden nerves, but will now make it 25% - should be crisply responsive :D

Video was a flop show  :( >:( >:(. For some reason (probably wrong button pressed by the cameraman) there was no video  :violent:

Will try to take another tomorrow

Nitesh is right on!! He is the "Mouse of the Year!"  :rofl: :goodjob:

I got the mouse 3 months ago, and was saving the packing  :giggle: :giggle:

Span - 53", AUW with 2800 mAh 3S is 1.3 Kg. Plans said 1.6 Kg  ;D

Getting 7 + minutes flying time, using a 3536-1250 KV with a MAS 10*7 prop. Used a 40/50 A HK ESC, motor maxes out at 43 A 560 W.

Quick and nice build Sanjay sir {:)}  :hatsoff:  Thanks for the  website  :hatsoff: i was looking for 3D Plane Balsa Plans and i got "Extra 300" balsa plan here http://www.outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=3606

Great build sir....  Hats off

sanjayrai55

Thanks Nithin, Manoj, Doc  :thanks:

Actually it was a longish build by Spad standards. To adapt from a balsa plan to Corro is difficult - you have to measure dimensions, draw extension lines and measure angles, figure out where to reinforce.......

Flies well though, so it's all worth it

Manoj, earlier I used to crash a lot, and I was building lots of high wing trainers.

Now I don't crash so much, and am enjoying flying low wing aerobatic models. So I have a whole bunch of High Wingers.....which will soon suffer from Hangar Rash :D :D

(Watch the For Sale space ;) )
