Title: Multiplex Easy Star 2 Build
Post by: raja_mastana on February 18, 2013, 08:02:27 PM
So after almost 3 years of chopper flying, I decide to start with planes. Got it from RCD last week.

Electronics
Motor : NTM Prop Drive Series 28-26A 1200kv
ESC : Turnigy Plush 25A
Servos : HXT 900

When I got the package, I was a bit shocked that I paid 5.8k for few pieces of thermocol  :P
Jokes apart, All the components pit perfectly and the build process was smooth.

Unfortunately, my first attempt was a hard nose in crash since I had the elevators reversed.

Many thanks to Anand bhai (http://www.rcindia.org/profile/?u=2946) and Sanjay Sir (http://www.rcindia.org/profile/?u=4444), they sorted out the issues with the glider and did a first flight for me.

I have crashed the glider 4 times out of my 5 attempts  :giggle:

Sujith, your flying skills are exceptional, not beginner. As to the reversed Elevator & Rudder.....well, it happens. No prob. You did not crash when we were flying  ;D
