Over the weekend a fellow flyer at my park had a rough landing.
He was going to retire this plane because he had 3-4 more at home. (ParkZone and Durafly)
We struck a deal and a few hours later it was at my place san electronics.
It has been flown and crashed before but the price was right and I got to check off another plane I've always wanted off my list.
Later on that evening I set to work fixing the broken nose section.
I used some $store 5min epoxy.
I had some good intel from the previous owner.
He had actually been using the motor, spinner adaptor and prop off his Durafly 1100m Trojan.
I followed suit and put a small order in with HK for the same stuff. Specially since the mount was all setup.
In the mean time I've installed a 2830-11 1000KV motor. Since taking the photo I opened up the piece of wood to increase the air flow to the esc.
I am going to start off with a MA Style 10x6 prop.
The ESC is a HK 35A
Really liked how the prev owner gave me the bath room caulking tip for the servos.
Glued in 4 HXT900 9g servos.
I'm looking forward to flying this plane a lot.
Only my 2nd foamie if you count the micro tiger moth.
