I like racing... Sign me up for a ARF version.

Papa · January 07, 2013, 02:29:01 PM

Will do Mike.

Eric, all are welcome that's the beauty of the team concept.
What I'll do is when it comes time to cut for teams members like you
who cannot attend all the time will be seeded evenly among the teams.

Jack.

OK, I'm in too!

Put me down for an ARC.

Hi Jack,
Whatever the group decide (ARF or ARC) to buy... it's fine for me...

I will join to and will prefer the ARF or better the RF! As don't think I will have much time to build.
Are the ARC guys planning any mods.... - should I re-think my preference.

What about Motor, Battery and servos what type... spec options etc. are these part of a separate group purchase.

Anyhow I am in even though I have no clue what I am getting into.

Bobby,

I requested an ARC simply for the opportunity to apply my own colour scheme, but also to consider reinforcing the center section as Frank suggests (although I doubt it'll be necessary with the racing rule power system).

So, um..... any mention of power system rules? Did I miss somethink? Jack?

I asked Jack the same question about Power Systems yesterday, and he kindly and compassionately informed me to read the rules in the first section of this post! Oops!

Essentially, 3S and an 18A Castle esc. Any motor, any prop. I think that's right.

I think you can use any motor but an 18-amp CC speed control is required.

Ededge2002 · January 08, 2013, 12:18:25 PM

Yes the spec speed controller is the only power system rule. Should leave room to tinker but still keep it relatively equal.

piker · January 08, 2013, 01:25:31 PM

I swear those rules wern't there when I looked before

Although they're called "Picker", as in "Nose Picker"

Cool.

sihinch · January 22, 2013, 04:24:01 PM

I am trying to finalise the group buy, from Icare. They are also able to offer the ESC (Castle Creations 18A Thunderbird) for $33.

Who would like an ESC - please respond below.

Me

bfeist · January 22, 2013, 09:31:56 PM

I'm interested too. I've always wanted a Nooner.

Hey Ben! You know we're talkin' about a plane here, eh?

I remember when Scott Black was designing the plane and he told me what the name was going to be. He was concerned that it may be to risqué, but that was his point

sihinch · January 23, 2013, 08:43:28 AM

Hey Ben, would you like an ARF or ARC?

And would you like a speed controller?
