Title: OK Model (PILOT) Akromaster - Corro with Nitro Engine
Post by: sanjayrai55 on August 28, 2019, 06:43:37 PM
I had earlier built this in Corro, with an Electric Motor.

Unfortunately, when the model was only about 10-`12 flights old, I landed off the runway, near the road, and some passer-by picked it up

Two rainy weekends in a row, no flying, so decided to build it again, with an ASP 25 Nitro Engine for power

Found one of the antenna wires on the Rx was loose

A real shame, it flew beautifully; very nimble maneuverable and quick. Did a few rolls and they were sharp and crisp

Model is a write-off

Yes, it is. My fault actually, missed checking the Rx thoroughly. Just took it for granted I guess

Wire must have loosened during assembly. In the air it lost the electrical contact
