Mini Explorer

[Mr NCT]

Very relaxing flight. Got lazy and ordered one from the FT store today. I noticed what looked like extra hardware besides the receiver. Are you using a gyro? Also, is there enough room to push the battery pretty far back? My smallest is 1000 3s and I would prefer to not add a new battery type/size to my inventory. Thanks.

I took some pics. What limits how far back the battery can go are the servos. With a 1300 3s and an 850 3s I was able to get a good CG so you should be fine with your 1000.

That looks great. Do you know if the kit comes with both wings? If not it shouldn't be a huge deal to figure out an aileron wing.

Since Flite Test is making the "old" "new", why not a mini OV-10 Bronco (one of my favorites)...?

Are you listening Flite Test?

You can go to Flite Deck > Show Suggestions and Viewer Requests and make a suggestion thread there if you want.

It would also be cool if they created a speed power pack.

 

[Mr Man]

It could be called power pack S!

No sir, I do not know. The plans include both wings.
