RE: Sapac L-39 & T-45 Composite + Hoffman 70 Storm
I'm generally happy if i can get 350 watts/lb, so that should be doable on the setup I have..honestly I dontknow if it is the HW or not, all I know is its the storm 70.. it should be arriving friday according to UPS..so I guess I willfind out then unlessZlin chimes in here... You going to E-jets? im planning to have mine rdy by then.. installing HET retracts w/ scale struts, and a set of navlights in it.. gunna go all out on this one, and use it as a prep for myself on finishing out a scale plane, since I just bought a turbine, and will be building aplane for it over the winter :) Kinda using this as a "turbine light"setup.. with the high wingloadng and everything, should be a good prep for it. I got my waiver on a richmodel Keecat, that was pushing about 120mph, and have a phase 3 f-16 that does about 130ish.. so the combination of this bird, and the high speed exp with the others, (and this one, dunno what kind of speeds i will see w/ it yet) should prepare me pretty well for a turbine :) I have been flying rc for about 27 yrs now, have flown everything from pattern to 3d, jets are my latest and greatest obsession hehe M

Well, I just purchased Zlin's L-39 w/ the hoffman..it has the80amp ESC so I amgoing to go 4s for a while.. may upgrade to a 5s down the road,but it soundslike it will fly,and fly well, on 4s. Papajeff, are you on 4 or 5s? How many watts/amps on a 4s? Thanks, Matt

flightlights.com "doubleburner"
Thinking about orderig this for a BlitzRC F-15 w/ Vector Thrust (From Banana hobbies). Anyone use this? how does it look? what about in bright sunlight? Would using 2 of these make it better, or is 1 set enough? Thanks! Matt
