Title: SOLD: E-Flite Leader 480
Post by: sihinch on April 21, 2013, 07:55:05 PM
I am selling on the Leader 480 that I bought from Frank a few weeks ago.  It has a Super Tigre .10 motor and 4 servos.  I don't think it's ever been crashed (no sign of any damage) and will just need a 40A esc and RX to go flying.

I flew it 3 times today and it just wasn't for me.  Super stable, very nice flier, but I'm not going to learn anything from it and I have other planes that I can do aerobatics with.  Maybe a good 2nd or 3rd plane for someone?  Flies with 1600-2200mAh 3S lipo (not included.)  Handles TEMAC runway with no problems.

Selling it for the same price I paid for it,  $90.  I will post on RCCanada on Wed.

From Franks post:
EFlite Leader 480 with a Super Tigre .10 (320 watts) incl. prop adapter and APC prop, 3 HS 55 servos (ail, el) and an E-sky (rudder), no esc, no RX.  This is a balsa and ply ARF.  Wings are removable.  Trike gear, steerable nose gear.

FWIW I own a leader and I really like it.

If you are looking for a nice plane to learn basic aerobatics with and have experience with a low wing intermediate plane, this is a great buy. Oh and  $90 is a steal.

Good luck with your sale Simon.

Wonderful.  Since it's staying in the club, if it's going to be flown on DSM Spektrum radio, I can leave the Orange receiver in too.  Would that be any help?

Cheers,
Simon
