Simon Wyatt Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I am looking for one of the small aerobatic models Overlander produced about 13 years ago. I'm not really fussy on which model out of the line up, but must be in usable condition.  may be a long shot but hey I've got to try 🙂 also if anybody knows of a small balsa 49" aerobatic model please let me know as i have exhausted my searching capabilities.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) I don't recall Overlander planes just motors,Lipo etc,  but Chilli Breeze was a really good 48 inch aerobatic model from RCME. An electric version is expected soon.  Edited February 6, 2023 by kc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Lots of aerobatic models on Outerzone at 49 inch like Sun Fli4 /20, Tweedy Bird etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel R Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Chilli breeze would be easy to convert. Move firewall forward a bit and add a battery hatch.  Good design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Gaskin 1 Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Another recommendation for a Chilli Breeze. I have had one since the 35 MHz days and it is still powered by the original AXI2820-10! Â Â Â Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Thanks, I am on the hunt. I have found a skywing model which would fit the bill but I would like the overlander model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Stephenson Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) Anyone who builds a Chilli Breeze should make the tailplane from good hard balsa as I and a few others had them fail in flight. It seems to be a weak point in the design. Edited February 7, 2023 by Andy Stephenson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
