Thanx for all the feed back. The fan is for a 4s battery. I will test fly with 2 of the 4s 2650mAh in paralel( or add lead) and then try the 3s x two in paralel. The bottom line is -I dont want to buy bigger batteries that will take a big chunk out of my modeling savings!! but will if I have to. Shame realy as I thought I was onto a winner!!

Question- My Lander RC panther ducted fan needs a 4s battery,which I have(2650mAh), but they are not heavy enough for the plane to balance.If I run the 4s battery and record the watts and amp draw. Can I use 2 X 3s batteries in series (which will give me the weight,but now a 6s) then set my TX throttle end point to match the figures I recorded on the 4s battery. Am I dicing with death?? Thanx

Baddad- Im so glad to see another successful flying BV215. My wife looked over my shoulder as I read your report and said "I take it from your smile it flew ok". The swelling of my heart and the lump in the throat answered her question!! Yes it makes me proud that all my effort was not done in vain. Enjoy Glenn

converted the stuka to Rudder/elevator. changed the cox 049(never flew it with engine in) to brushless outrunner. covered in dope and tissue. Battery goes in hatch to the right of the exzort. Paint job from real stuka flys great-keep up the speed up . Infilled the stringers around the nose area. only flew a few times-to good to smash up!! Glenn c

Great looking BV215 Mike. Glad sombody made one that flys. I was starting to think I designed a dog! love the paint job and the nose looks great too. I made a Sukhio SU37 with a paint job the same. Kept losing it in the turns. finnished my new WW11 experimental twin-Mcdonnel XP 67 Moonbat. Glenn Edited By Tim Mackey on 06/01/2012 17:54:17

Hi Guys.Sorry for not answering for a bit but I have been away recuperating. The C of G is as follows 11.5 cm from the trailing edge where it meets the fuz.12.8 cm for the first test flight.(forward C of G point). There is plenty of room in the fuz to move the battery about-use a 1500mAh 3s battery. It will fly with a 2200mAh 3s battery but it is a bit heavy for it the back plate(motor mount) is at 90 degrees to the wing- I.E- zero down/up or side thrust . The wing tips are also set at zero degrees angle of attack. . Throw at 3/4 throttle and open up to full throttle if needed. Honestly the plane fly`s very well indeed. If built right there should be no dramas!! It even fly's inverted 2 feet of the deck!! Best of luckGlenn

Grasshopper sorry for the delay but Ive not been well. My throws are 3mm reflex-both elevons are 3mm fixed in the up position elevator--15mm up=12 mm down-with rates 12mm up=8mm down aileron--8mm and 5mm with rates. i hope your test flight is less frantic this time Glenn
