While it's not 2M, it's not as imposing on a young person. That matters a lot when you're 8!!...he is flying a new Monolog this season that we're finishing up (thanks Mike Mueller!) and he keeps saying, "wow, that looks so big" as it sits in the workshop.</span></div><div><span>The other thing about the 5S setup, in addition to using them later in a 2M, is that if you really use a watt meter, prop it properly, and don't push the packs too long the batteries will be OK. So, my vote is a single 5S setup and a 2M - not necessarily the same plane. </span></div><div>Bill</div><div> </div><div><font color="#4040ff" face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="2"><br style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);

[NSRCA-discussion] New AJ 5S 5000 pattern plane<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container"><br>We’ve moved past it, but my son Sean used a 62” osiris (2 of them actually) to start out in pattern and won district championships in both Sportsman and Intermediate with one until finally convincing dad to let him fly a 2m plane. It’s a fantastic beginning design. Bob Kane flew one in Masters for an entire season somewhat out of necessity, but quite competently. The only issue with the higher classes was that it took it’s toll on a 5s5000 pack to fly the entire sequence if set up for the required power. But assuming most will likely fly it in the lower classes, it was the perfect size. Any smaller and you will start to lose the feel of a slower 2m plane that it emulates so well.<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">Mark Atwood<br clear="none">Paragon Consulting, Inc. |
