  • Welcome to Fat Guy Flies Rc post build overview of the OMP Hobby Super Decathlon purchased from Buddy Rc. This Super Decathlon is pnp which means I needed to supply my own receiver and radio system. and of course battery. OMP Hobby has done an amazing job making this Super Decathlon easy to build and rock solid. Other that glueing on the tail feathers the only other gluing is the bottom plate to the gear (which I forgot to mention in the video).
    No as I expected this magnificent model is out of stock just that quick! and it was just released about a week ago! But be patient they will restock (hopefully soon)!
    Here is a NON affiliate link to use to get yours when back in stock:

    The build was as easy as the quality is great! An amazing plane. The video does not do it justice! This thing looks fantastic!

    Make sure you cut vent holes in your fuselage or your top hatch will blow off in flight. They are just below the cowl & at the bottom just in front of the tail wheel. Nice post build & unboxing, looking forward to the maiden. Can’t fly mine until the snow melts up here.😞

      Good tip! I was thinking there were no air holes but plenty of inlet cooling. Hopefully I can fly mine tomorrow , Friday the 24th.

      The belly ribs are a bit weak be careful how you hold the plane.

    Mine was the same way. The rudder was split a little bit where the horizontal stabilizer goes in at . I did the same thing and used thin ca and sanded and cut some of the covering off on the stabilizer.

    there have been alot of problems with the top hatch flying off in flight. i guess drilling an air release hole somewhere near the tail wheel to lessen the inside pressure . id call omp to find out

      I an gonna put in an air vent towards the rear.

    Ya know whats strange? is that the only Foam Plane Company that produced a Super Decathlon was the Volantex Brand and i had one but the Motor and Esc was complete garbage but the rest of the plane was just incredibly awesome and well contructed...i think i will have to bite the bullet and get the Higher grade OMP Cathy and not have to do anything to it but fly it balls out....

      She flies great but DO NOT HOLD HER TIGHTLEY FROM THE BELLY! I cracked one of the fuse ribs by just moving the model around. Hold her by the wing only.

    How do you hook up the lights

    • @FatGuyFliesRC
      @FatGuyFliesRC  ปีที่แล้ว

      You just need power. You can plug them into the bind port or any unused port like channel 5 where retracts normally go.

      The six s has a vector stabilizer and a better motor esc. Also a wooden prop.

    Nice Mr. FliesRC! I just put mine together and absolutely love it. I've subscribed and will definitely delve into your channel as I'm interested in seeing all that other stuff you've got in your workshop. Please feel free to check out mine as well if you're interested in seeing some RC stuff from Australia.

      Hook them up to a servo testor first to ensure they work if they do give the lights their own channel .
