Baby Blender V2, Fun Bat & FT3D Flights & Failures

Baby Blender

Turnigy Aerodrive 1400kv

HK 40amp ESC

Turnigy 1300mah 3s

3x hextronic hxt900 9grm servos

8x4.5 SF prop

completly failed trying to get the BB off the ground and broke a wing support but it was maybe to windy for a maiden flight so i pulled out the once trusted Fun bat.

Fun Bat:

Turnigy aerodrive D2826/6 2200kv

HK 40amp ESC

Turnigy 2200mah 3s

2x Hextronic HXT900 9grm servos

6x4e prop

This time round i swapped the 1400kv aerodrive for the Turnigy 480 park motor 1320kv on a 9x4.7 SF prop on a really calm sunny day. she flew brilliantly with some slight trimming of the ailerons.

Had a problem with the FT3D with the first couple of taxis causing the landing gear to colapse and push through the fuselage so removed them for a hand launch that didnt go very well. I tried 1300mah 3s and a 2200mah 3s but niether of these helped with the CG issues i think. so i have to repair the FT3D and try again.

but im going back out today to see if i can get some onboard flight footage with the BB. really liking how this plane performs. it will barrol roll and loop really easily. excellent plane.
