[NSRCA-discussion] Foamy for pattern practice

[Ken Velez]

 I second Terry. I have 2 of them set up with the AXI 2212/34 out runner Phoenix 10 speed controller 10X7 SF prop and I use a TP 3C 1320 for CG and duration, over 13 minutes. Capable of doing Master or FAI with it. But again is around 15 oz.

  Hands down, that is easy!! Try the original GWS Formosa. I have over 100 flights on mine, and just love it. I have been trying for nearly 2 years to get hold of one of the "new" Formosa II's. GWS keeps advertising them, but still not available.
  I upgraded mine to the HiMax 2025, and use a 3 cell LiPolly. On a 900 Mah I can get about 10 minutes on nearly full power.
  I even set mine up for floats and I fly it several times a day when we camp during the summer, and it got rave reviews from the other fliers at our annual float fly last Sept.
  The only criteria it does not meet for you is the 10oz weight. I believe mine is arount 14 to 15 oz.

  Drop me a note if you want more info.

    Hi all

    I'm looking for a small (less than 10oz) foamy for pattern practise and fun while there's snow on the ground. What have the guys in group used? I've tried rcu for opinions and found it impossible to get any consensus...there are as many negatives as positives for every aircraft discussed.

    I have a GP Turmoil however it flys more like a kite than a precision aircraft. I'm looking for something that has been designed for more than just hovering/3D.

    Any help will be appreciated.
