    I built one with drone bits ( 2 channel)
    Today I finally got the gyro problem sorted out that would cause one motor to cut with a heavy bank .
    So, test flying in the house today it went straight and level straight through the wife's glass cabinet.
    Probably shouldn't fly in the house.

    I bought 6 of these from a shop here in the UK called, the works. About 2 years ago. £2.99 each. Iv still yet to build them all. But this video is brilliant.

    My guess it will be quick. As is the Bolt glider which that model is a smaller copy of. 👍

    Very nice conversion... thank you.
    Does seem odd to fit nice suitably smal ESC's... only to fit the largest BEC Known to man.

      Hey thanks! I came to the same conclusion and swapped it for one of these : s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_A57kFr Have a great day!

    An interesting build me old china! Looking forward to seeing how she goes as there's a Cheetah hanging on my wall waiting for the shipping deformation to morph out of it. Our mate will probably have his Lidl-type glider conversion (using the motors/escs out of a crashed Bugs 2c) ready to try tomorrow as well as all our Eachine Flying Fish twins.
    Oh and a question - do you know where you can get contra-rotating EDF fans for a matched set for builds like this?

      Thanks old bean! This listing says CW / CCW but I would double check with the supplier! :s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_A8d3uz Hope the test flights go OK, hopefully mine will be next week. Thanks for watching, have a great day!

    I think the wings will break at the servo wells......... I flew mine for the 1st time today with the full length fiberglass spars on top Floats like a feather I don't see any problem with the weight

    • @1nformatica
      @1nformatica  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, the servo wells are a weak point. I've given mine a lot of abuse and the tips just flex, the foam is very resilient. Thanks for watching, have a great day!

    the yellow esc is a cheap esc for china and if you had two yellow esc from the same seller i bet if you cut them open they would look different and they suck I took off the wires and connectors and tossed the esc in the trash

    • @1nformatica
      @1nformatica  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have had better luck, I've bought several of those "el cheapo" power systems with ESC, motor & prop and only had one with the ESC dead on arrival. Never had one fail in flight (yet)!! Thanks for watching, have a great day!
