BTW, looks like you are building 24/7. Do you still have a day job (the kind that feeds the wife and kids) ? :P ;D Title: Re: Bird series planes: EAGLE Post by: Ashta on October 19, 2009, 12:46:49 PM ha.. ha.. ;D... ;D
how can u say 24/7, when i do spent atleast 2/7 in this forum. anwar, some times its an advantage to be old, and leverage on the past hw days. any way no much ladders to climb.... ;D Title: Re: Bird series planes: EAGLE Post by: Ashta on October 27, 2009, 11:39:00 AM hello, wanted to try one of these from long time.

AUW w/o bat = 290 grams motor towerpro 2408-21, 8x4 prop, 15a esc, gws rcvr,9 gram servo,1020 3cell I had to do lot of fine tuning esp the CG and balancing, to finally make it fly. I also had to put a lower Motor to balance the CG. Once we get the sweet spot, its realy fun to fly. pl see the videos. once agin since i took the video thru my Hat cam pl forgive me for the out of frame issues. As suggested by Anwar, i am putting two videos, 1. just to show the plane close and 2. the flying video.

Here is a video playing with real Eagles. This is an unedited video. in fact it took some time for the eagles to get attracted and come. So in fact i wanted to cut the first few portion of video before posting it here. . But i do not have much experience in video editing. Hence i could not do it. pl do not give up seeing it by watching the initial video, eagles starts coming after after 1 min 40 seconds. pl note that i took this video myself while flying using my crude but very effective CAP camera arrangement. thanks for watching. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Y9sm4g4K3U best regards ashta Title: Re: Bird series planes: EAGLE Post by: ujjwaana on November 19, 2009, 10:56:35 PM Man O man!! How were you keeping up with the orientation and distinguishing between your birds and so many kites Ashta sir? I have seen Kites chasing the EP Planes more often in jakkur as well. They keep away from Nitro and Gasser may be because of the loud sound.
Great built and beautiful flight!! Title: Re: Bird series planes: EAGLE Post by: Ashta on November 20, 2009, 12:31:50 PM thanks ujjwaana.
