Hi.
I just wanted to share with you a project that has taken my interest in flying to a new level.
For about 6-7 years now, i've had an old Twinstar lying around in it's original brushed version, with some damages and missing parts.
I got it with some other used Rc parts back then, and never could throw it away. And this was back before I discovered Brushless setups.
After discovering your channel on Youtube and subscribing, I got a new hope and motivation for rebuilding mine.
So, with some help from your thread on the setup, I ordered some parts from Hobbyking and got to it.
I'm running 2-Plush 30 ESC's,
2-D4023-850 motors,
New servos except the ailerons (they are working fine, and slow enough to get stabile video)
9x6 SF props
NanoTech 3s-2200Mah battery.
SkyRC GPS Meter
Now I've flown a couple times before, and some simulators earlier. But just this january I got my first ARF plane.
Started off with the Hobbyking Spad, and then the Wilga 2000.
BUT!! When I got the Twinstar in the air for the first time, I could not stop grinning, even though my hands were shaking the whole time.
It is an awsome flying machine, and even better platform for my GoPro!!
I've flown it 8-10 times now, and I am really getting a feel for it.
So. i just wanted to thank you for the inspiration and posting helpful setup
I want to post a video i made last week, that shows some nice video of my hometown @ 384 meters.
PLEASE NOTE: I have some issues with the video editor (or my laptop) Because when I convert to videofiles, they tend to get some streaks running across the image. And also I haven't balanced my props in this video
But I still got some good images during the video.
