viggen

Hey everyone, So, I was wondering, what is the max speed of the FT Viggen? Maybe somebody knows or has a general idea? 60 mph? 70 mph? 80 mph? If you know, you can also say it in km/h of course. Is the Viggen the fastest FT plane? Or is the Racer ( Rip Slinger ) faster? Thanks in advance...

Let me start off by saying that I always have to be building something. :D This time it will be a 300% (not 150%.....not 200%.....but 300%) FT Viggen. I figured since I have a 100% Viggen and David's original MiniViggen (45%), it's time to build a MonsterViggen (just came up with that name). :D...

Experimenting with 12 blade fans with the Viggen. They work fine but are soooooo quiet that it isn't worth the effort. The sound is right - just isn't loud. Has anyone experimented with the expansion chamber to get different sounds (especially with a 12 blade)? Specifically, I want to know...

Hello everybody. It is within my great intent to say that this is my first forum post and I believe we all know it is going to lack Rc knowledge. Which leads to my first point. I need to know a set up that I can buy online that has all the electronics of the FT viggen. (Motor, ESC, Battery...

Recently I have been obsessed with smaller planes and decided to try and make some scaled down FT planes. The smaller ones seem to be a tad bit harder to fly than the bigger ones, and take more tweaking, but it is totally worth it when they are done. Some of the advantages of smaller planes are...

I ran into a problem with the afterburner mod. The 70mm EDF setup runs off 4s lipos (3s as well but under powered), and the brushed esc's i can find for lipos, only go up to 3s. The LED's for the afterburner just flash with the 4s instead of gradually getting brighter with 3s. I tried powering...

...to all you guys at Flite Test, for helping to renew my interest in flying rc and helping me to build two awesome new planes. I used to fly alot of rc helicopters but it was always very stressful flying $3k+ models around and a heart attack made me leave the hobby for several years. I just...

Oops

So this is my first scratch built EDF, and I wanted something special. When I Googled viggen and looked through the pictures I found exactly what I was looking for... I hope I did it justice... While I have build several of the FT planes (as well as others) this one has been quite an...

You asked: Monster Viggen with TWO ducted fans in it. Be interesting as well to see if you could get some vectoring by placing a servo controlled control "rudder" in the "exhaust" path between and behind the EDF's where it was still enclosed by the fuselage. I suspect it would need a BIG...

Hi Is it just me or is the rudder overlapping the fuselage in the Viggen plans.

I just started the build today on the Viggen! It uses the same plans as David's but is scaled up to fit a 90mm edf unit. Not sure whether I want to put retracts on it or not. It will be powered by 12 blade alloy ducted fan unit from hk and will use a 7s, not sure on capacity yet. Will be...
