David Ashby - Moderator Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 They got it right though - last saw one at an airshow in 1990! - always impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Dusted fan ! I like that..... doesn't anyone have responsibilty for checking these ads before they are unleashed to the great public critical eye #Also it mentions Elevons - but surely they mean Tailerons ?

winchweight Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 I have watched a movie clip on YouTube and yes it does. Sadly not a full moving tail though. Seems pretty agile though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Hargreaves - Moderator Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Check out the version BRC have tooF4 PhantomSadly not a "dusted" fan but looks good.....rog too if you can stand those awful u/c legs in flight!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 That actually looks pretty good - and considering it comes pretty well complete with servos et al - a good VFM package me thinks....however I see its actually a GWS - dont know if BRC have substituted a better fan / motor unit?The video didnt do much for me - mind you they rarely do.... most of the time its just a dot belting around the sky but it does show it seemes to have plenty of power - I would ditch the undercarriage though, especially for ROG ( Grass ) and as you say....they look a bit naff dangling down in flight.

winchweight Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 It looks good and has ailerons as opposed to the tailerons on the Kyosho one. An all moving tail would have been better still instead of elevators..Why do they insist on promoting their products with video shot from a mobile phone?here's a link to more details of the Kyosho onehttp://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_7653521/anchors_7653521/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#7653521http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDqR1hQxJ_s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
