Delta Whiskey Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 ......I have 4 of these batteries and am looking for a model to get me further into the leccy world. I have these spare from a 450 heli I've not really used so want a fixed wing model to use them. I will consider all sorts and am looking at a intermediate level of flying and would consider, powered gliders, scale war birds, and aerobatic types around £150 max, so post your recommedations please ! Cheers....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Bromwich Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 HI most of these 25e models from Robotbirds will take them batterys and are very good quality kits rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Pollard Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Only one in my opinion, that is the Mini Pulse. Get a good 10 mins flight out of mine Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Loads of different models use this very popular size 3s battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta Whiskey Posted December 29, 2009 Author Share Posted December 29, 2009 thanks for the prompt replies! I did fancy a blizzard before, after seeing one down our patch, very fast but the turing power kit took it well over £150. I also fancied the bigger pulse for IC, will have another look at the mini version spec. Keep the recommendations coming in folks, especially if you have the model your recomending !

Bruce Richards Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I have quite a few of this size battery and I use/d them in parallel for my (now defunct) Eflite Diamante, in series 6S for my WOT4 singly in 3 different EDF models and a Multiplex Gemini. They are very flexible and many models you can use them in. Its more up to what you want rather than a limit of the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta Whiskey Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 Sorry ! Mine are 25 - 30c I think. Thanks all for the suggestions, I will list them down, and review each and choose one to buy ! Ken, at £35 I'm guessing this was not the Tuning kit making it hotliner like? Blizzard Power Tuning Set (Himax C3510-1350) £ 114.99 even the basic one more than £35 did you get you own selection? Blizzard Power Drive Set (Himax C3510-1100) £ 89.99 mind you this does seem to include everything include folding prop etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken anderson. Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 yo delta-the £35.00 was for a motor and 30 amp controller..i allready had the other bit's....one of my friends has a blizzard with the £114.00 set up in -it is very fast but also the wing loading is very heavy..and it takes some slowing down to land.....my motor was/is a turnigy 250 watt turning an 8*6 prop pulling 24 amp's..(static)..unloads in the air....check out some of the blizzard threads on the forum here.....good info...... ken anderson...........

Mowerman Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 If you like to build it yourself try the Piwakawaka from a free plan in RCM&E. Straight forward build, great flyer. My only reservation would be that it seems to be susceptable to glitches if 35meg radio but no prob's on 2.4 g. 4 in our club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 If you can find an EasyStreet it's an excellent aerobat on 3s, or a MiniPanic goes well on the same. For a quicker build there's the Multiplex Funjet My electrified Flair Sunrise 100" soarer uses a 3s pack, as does my Veron 1 1/2 Strutter - with 3s the world's your oyster.

Jonathan Lewzey Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I love my multiplex funjet to bits. will fit loads of different size packs, is aerobatic and faaassstttt Also really flexible flight envelope; you can brush the grass on fast passes one minute and thermal soar it the next. I can take it up to height and hunt thermals, inverted, no power, for about 2 minutes before powering away. No stall to speak of, just parachutes like a 3D model. If you're looking for an aerobat, try a 25-30e size. Most of them are great, but i'd recommend hyperion, sebart, precision aerobatics and fliton models. see my build blog on the hyperion edge 540.

David Ashby - Moderator Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 More..... Most of the Seagull EP range All the Overlander 30 size aerobats (the Sukhoi SU-26 is my fave) Edited By David Ashby - RCME Administrator on 30/12/2009 12:04:59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
