Hello I am building the banana hobby T45 GosHawk. I seen that you installed the 110 jet fan EDF. Question that I have is. Did you have to remove any of the material to fit the EDF? I am thinking that if it was designed for 105 MM that I would have to remove a small amount to have the EDF to fit
@@pzukowski1001 Thank you for replying. That's a very nice field you fly at. I am moving to the area in about 18 months and can't wait to try it out myself. Take care. Jayson
@@AphexTwinII no an L-39 or T-33 would be better first time large EDFs. HSD and Aeorofoam have some good model. T-45 is a beautifully flying jet but not as forgiving on landings.
I have the MB339 and she is a beast in the air stock fan, I have toyed with building this t45 but know nothing about that mfc controller but I’d like to learn it, how would I go about that?
Hi Michael, you do not need to use the HSD controller to setup the T-45. I just like the flexibility and clean setup it provides. You can simply y-connect all the servo wires to your rx and skip the controller or use a controller form other manufacturers like xicoy etc. Good luck, this plane is fun!
@@andrewf6952 Yes! I explain in the video. I had to add 150ohm resistors so they would not burn up. Be careful the MFC puts out a higher voltage on the LED ports.
Were you able to adjust the electric brakes individually? For some reason when I go to the “wheel brake” menu, the only options I have are “brake selection” and “wheel air brake.” I don’t have the “wheel electric brake” option like it shows in the manual. I have selected electric brake as the type of brakes.
also sir i would like to ask you about the brake controller? are you running 7.4 or 8.4 i can get them work on the bench but not much slowing down via landings ? any issue with this ?
@@pzukowski1001 same here, what are your gains set up if you don’t mind me asking. Plus I have yet to get my edf and esc. I saw you recommend the jet fan but what motor is the true question.
Hi Paul, I’m not familiar with the HSD MFC (but getting ready to setup one on my T-33) so this may be a stupid question but does it replace the need for a UBEC?
Good question, I would say they are head to head on foam and build quality. HSD is ahead in terms of electronics, they use the MFC-2085 controller in all their models which integrates all avionics control.

@@richardpetrosino2263 hi, sorry for the late reply. There was no problem in fitting a 110 EDF. The only mod I had to make was to expand the intake shroud that mounts around the EDF unit. It's plastic and easy to cut or carve out.
Beautifully put together. Extremely neat.
Nice video, your garage looks very clean, and the workshop behind it is very good.
Great video very helpful
Great video thanks Paul!

Whats the take-off weight ?
Very nice. How did you CG this? Would love to see that part too.
My CG is 10mm in front of the recommended CG. I find that the model lands better that way and points the nose down on final approach.

Great video
Is this the turbine ready version you converted?
This model is sold as both turbine and EDF version. Not much difference, they just ship the EDF without fuel tanks and thrust tube.
@@pzukowski1001 Would you recommend this for a first large EDF jet? Been flying large scale prop for 30ish years.

Hey Paul, I am running an hsd controller in mine as well. What settings did you use for the retracts?
1A current setting for the retract motors.
@@pzukowski1001 awesome, thanks! Did you have any issues hooking the LED’s up?
@@andrewf6952 Yes! I explain in the video. I had to add 150ohm resistors so they would not burn up. Be careful the MFC puts out a higher voltage on the LED ports.
@@pzukowski1001 yeah I plugged my landing light in and it started getting really hot

Do you have the AS3X settings tuned or are you even using those?
Hi, yes, I use AS3X on lall my jets, regardless of size. It really improves aerobatic perfomance and overall flight stability.
@@pzukowski1001 same here, what are your gains set up if you don’t mind me asking. Plus I have yet to get my edf and esc. I saw you recommend the jet fan but what motor is the true question.
was it hard to hook up the mfc controller? im a fan of them as well and i want to put one in my goshawk
It was very easy. I plugged in all the servos directly into the MFC. That's what it is designed to do.
Hi Paul, I’m not familiar with the HSD MFC (but getting ready to setup one on my T-33) so this may be a stupid question but does it replace the need for a UBEC?
Yes it does. You plug a 2s lipo into it, then it can step the voltage down to 6 volts for the servos
What resisters you got to make this work can you provide a link
Hi, I don't have a link handy but 130ohm 0.25W is what I used. You can get these on Amazon
@@pzukowski1001 thank you and exactly how did you applicate them and how many do I need
@@mr.maneuver287 You need one resistor per LED. They can be soldered anywhere in series with the LED.
Which have better quality,AF or HSD?
Good question, I would say they are head to head on foam and build quality. HSD is ahead in terms of electronics, they use the MFC-2085 controller in all their models which integrates all avionics control.
Buy a jeti controller. You wont struggle a day longer
HI Paul. I have a question for you about the T-45. Do you have an email address that I could contact you at?

@ if you can could you take some pictures of the EDF installed so I have a reference please
Sorry but I sold the EDF version of this plane. I moved to turbine.@@richardpetrosino2263
@ ok thank you
