Always buy one more than you think you may need. Just in case that biplane needs to become a triplane

Thanks Caroline
yesterday the ad was not yet
today yes, the 3-6-2021 will be in store
I think I need another one although I still have one stored in its box

I install two EMAX RS1606 4000KV
it's a missile, with 3s 1000mah 70c
16gr and 4045 three-bladed
with batteries with a lower discharge rate, they get hot
I have wanted to make modifications to the wings for a long time
and strengthen it a bit
at full power his tail trembles

What do you prefer
3 or 4 channels
one or two motors?
have you removed the dihedral from the wing?

I've left the wing polyhedral, taking it out was a pain and I'm lazy
Without added area the rudder is not that effective. The two motor version has a rudder effect ( really effective ) from differential. That twin runs on 4S and is silly fast.

I don't dare to put 4s on it

Picked up two today, gave one to a kid on my street. The Lidl glider has been updated. Sleeker wingtips and ailerons and other control surfaces indicated in the moulding. The nose weight is no longer a big bolt - it's an actual 'designed' weight.
