Title: Hyperion sniper x2 maiden flight Post by: santhosh on January 16, 2011, 06:22:03 PM hi all
maidened it yesterday on our paddy fields,its almost ok after a long monsoon season, and she flew beautifully, on the second flight landad it inverted as the battery was fully down . it was a range test for the sprctrum orange rx,gave good results and am sure that this can be used on the high end models if u take the risk ;D pls watch the videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um4nlS-8cD8 Title: Re: Hyperion sniper x2 maiden flight Post by: atul_pg on January 16, 2011, 06:56:43 PM Santosh you should change your status to " Advanced ".

What is the power system you used on this one ? Title: Re: Hyperion snipper x2 Post by: santhosh on January 17, 2011, 11:00:28 AM motor hyperion zs2213-18 /1024kv, prop 10*5,esc 40amps,battery turnigy 3s 1500 mah 30c. the recommended motor for this is zs3007b-24 can give 400 watts of power.but my set up can produce only about 280 watts with 11*5.5 prop and 3s battery , still no idea why i ordered this online from aircraftworld.com :headscratch:
Title: Re: Hyperion snipper x2 Post by: santhosh on January 17, 2011, 09:55:33 PM How come you don't get in any trouble while importing different kind of planes ? the customs never showed mercy towards me pls read my post "customs order everyone should keep".sniper was brought by my friend from singapore so no customs issues. i ordered the motor for it from www. aircraft-world.com and paid :Rs: 615 as duty |
