Olympus F3A

Hi

Read the review in the March edition of RCME on the Olympus F3A all foam from CML distribution.

Was unable to find any 'threads' relating to this model, has anybody got one? what are your views?

Nigel Hawes article suggests that he wasn't impressed straight out of the box, but 'Steve Burgess' stepped in and made several adjustments? but didn't expand on what they were!

Appears to be on back order everywhere, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I know this is nearly three years after the OP, but I have two questions:

Does anyone know if this plane can be hand launched? It's not particularly light, but had loads of power which should help. I recall Nigel Hawes doing something to his so that it could be hand launched and belly landed but can't find the article. I've hand launched a Twinstar, Acromaster and Max Thrust Lightning for 14 years but they are all lighter and have lower wing loading than the Olympus.

Secondly, would 6s 3300 25-50C Nanotech batteries be ok for it, or do you need more capacity?

Any help gratefully received.
