Ben Kelly Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 As the title suggests I'm looking to get a new model. I'm after something 3D that can be really thrown around and to practice my 3D flying with. I either would like something electric for a 2200 3S battery setup or something for a 15cc petrol engine.Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Colman Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 If a foamie isn't out of the question the MPX Acromaster is still a great model for 2200 3S batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Kelly Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 I was hoping for something balsa as I have a plethora of foam models but I'm not going to rule that one out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Assuming you are looking for an ARF/PNP, a balsa 3D model for a 3S 2200 is going to need to be very small to be adequately powered. I think you will have accept it needs to be a foamie or be prepared to migrate to a bigger 4S batteries if you want to go the electric balsa route. If you are prepared to go with foam the Voltigeur might be a good fit, though not available from the UK warehouse at present...

Ben Kelly Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 That looks good. Also just been browsing the net and found this one from 3D Hobby Shop. http://www.kingslynnmodelshop.co.uk/Aircraft-3D_Hobby_Shop-3D_Hobby_Shop_Electric/c17_393_394/p13097/44_Inch_3D_Hobby_Shop_Slick_580_ARF_-_Blue/product_info.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevan Lewis 1 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I can recommend the Hyperion extra 330 sc 20e. It comes with motor but is ARTF so requires servos and Esc. Excellent for 3d a beautiful balsa plane thats well made and uses 2200 3s lipos. Check it out on youtube. Its now discontinued but Robotbirds have some left.. https://www.robotbirds.co.uk/default/aircraft/semi-scale-planes/aerobatic/hyperion-extra-330sc-20e-kit-only.html.

Trevor Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 The Addiction X from Precision Aerobatics goes very well on a 3s 2200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
