Title: V911 modified into a sailplane Post by: pnkyjs on May 09, 2017, 11:10:52 AM :) I had a V911 heli with a damaged gyro, then while trying to fly its servo horn also chipped off. So, i adapted the avionics and all into a sailplane . A bit underpowered but it sails ok.

Sir, The video, and your date of joining RCI tell us that you are not a beginner. Time to upgrade your profile! Well done. That was a good flight. Regards Title: Re: V911 modified into a sailplane Post by: Imperial fire on July 19, 2017, 09:50:54 PM Are u sure it's 1500mm?? Looks like 1100mm...

Title: Re: V911 modified into a sailplane Post by: pnkyjs on July 20, 2017, 07:30:37 AM @imperial . There the pic is of a plane with wingspan 1000mm, and the posted video is of a plane with wingspan 1500 mm. So I had bigger aspect ratio and hence good flight. But the all up weights are same.
Title: Re: V911 modified into a sailplane Post by: pnkyjs on July 20, 2017, 07:31:22 AM wing area is almost same .
Title: Re: V911 modified into a sailplane Post by: pnkyjs on July 20, 2017, 07:45:40 AM Its a few mm bigger than 1500 !
