H-King A-1 Skyraider with ORX Flight Stabiliser: ESSENTIAL RC FLIGHT TEST

H-King A-1 Skyraider with ORX Flight Stabiliser: ESSENTIAL RC FLIGHT TEST
AVAILABLE HERE:
Very little assembly required to get this super scale Skyraider in the air. Glue in the horizontal stabiliser with medium cyano or UHU-POR and connect up the clevis to the elevator horn. Attach the wing to the fuselage with the provided screw. Push in the landing gear legs and secure each with a screw. Attach the propeller. Glue on the scale bombs. Then all that remains is to install your receiver taking care to connect the flight stabilisation lead into the AUX1 channel and configure that against a 2 position switch on your transmitter so you can switch between Beginner and Expert modes.
Connect up a 3S800 lipo flight pack while the Skyraider is level on the ground and the stabilisation system will take a few seconds to arm. Check CG balance and orientation of flight surfaces with control inputs and you are set for your first mission. Take off in Beginner mode for the start of your first flight. In this mode the roll and pitch are limited and you are prevented from rolling to inverted flight. Switch to Expert mode and this limitation is removed but the stabilisation still smooths up any turbulence caused by the wind!
This Skyraider is very smooth to fly and so stable it can be flown in a relatively small space with ease if you keep the speed low. We tried some scale aerobatics and inverted flight and it could execute all with ease. A great value warbird to take to the airfield on the passenger seat of your car !
