-Piece of crap B2 Stealth Bomber - Hitec555 without case Kontronik Micro10 ESC stock mini motors and props CS-10 servos max power consumption 7 cells ~ 11 watts weight without battery - 5.25oz. wingloading ~ 5.27 oz/sqft decibel level - 93 db max 7 cell 110mah NiCad 3 cell 1300mah non-rechargable Lithium Notes: Uh... this plane pretty much sucks ass. Ifit weren't for the rocket motor project, I would never have bought it.Stay far away from this one is my suggestion.	-NeSail Elfi with ailerons- Hitec555 Pixie14 ESC stock geared 280 motor and prop CS-20 servos max power consumption 7 cells ~ 30 watts weight without battery - 11.75oz. wingloading ~ 8.45oz/sqft decibel level - 83 db max max prop rpm on 7 cells - 2700rpm 7 cell 350 or 600mah NiCads Notes: My friend, Scott's, first electric. He(we) had a heck of a time figuring out how not to tip stall it on its few first flights. Launch. His first words, "Where's the power?" -crash. Launch."What am I doing wrong?" -crash. He's a hp spoiled vet from sloppy wetplanes. He(we) finally figure out it simply won't climb at a 45 degreeangle. :)
-Dymond Baby Grob G109 - Hitec555 Aveox EZ30 ESC with brake Graupner folder 8x6 and 9x5 Aveox brushless 1005Y3+3.7:1 gearbox Dymond Pico and D200 BB servos max power consumption 10 cells ~ 200 watts weight without battery - 29.0 oz. wingloading ~ 18.5 oz/sqft decibel level - 99 db max 8 cell 500mah AR NiCad 10 cell 800mah AR NiCad 8 cell 1100mah NiMH or 8 cell 2150mah NiMH 10 cell 1600mah NiMH Old powertrain setup: Dymond D20 ESC with brake, 8x4 or 8x6 nylon APC prop,gearedMaxx 1.7:1, Dymond Speed 480, max power consumption 8 cells ~ 105 watts,weight without battery - 25.75oz., wingloading ~16 oz/sqft Notes: Very neat plane and is not a beginner plane.Stalls easily and quickly by dramatically tipping a wing. This plane doesVERY tight loops. Needs to fly fast to handle reasonably. Landings need to be hot and climb outs after take off are at best a 20 degree angle.	-TrickRC Zagi 400 - Hitec555 without case Jeti14 ESC stock Gunther 6x4 or 5.7x3 APC prop stock Speed 400 6v HS-81 servos max power consumption 8 cells ~ 110 watts weight without battery - 16.25.oz. wingloading ~ 7.3 oz/sqft decibel level - 106 db max 8 cell 500mah AR NiCad 8 cell 1100mah NiMH or 8 cell 2150mah NiMH Notes: Can anyone say anything more about the mostpopular e-plane out there? I thought not.
-JK Aerotech T52 Trainer - Hitec555 without case Dymond D20 ESC with brake APC 8x6 prop Dymond sp400 6v+2.33:1 '1700' gearbox(HobbyLobby) Hitec HS80 servos max power consumption 8 cells ~ 95 watts weight without battery - 23 oz. wingloading ~ 10.6-11.8 oz/sqft decibel level - ?? db max 7 cell 600mah AE NiCad 8 cell 1100mah NiMH Notes: Flew like a frozen chicken at first; finally figured out a good working powertrain and now it flies well. Added thelanding gear pic1, pic2,pic3 and a small tail wheel. Does great takeoffs and landings on pavement nowwith the tail wheel; without the tail wheel it wouldn't ROG. Very shortgrass ROG may be possible but I haven't tried yet.	-Cavazos Switchblade ARF - Hitec555 without case AstroFlight ESC that comes with 020 Cam 4.7x4.7 AstroFlight pylon 020 6 wind Hitec HS-55 servos max power consumption 7 cells ~125watts weight without battery - 9 oz. wingloading ~ 18 oz/sqft decibel level - 92 db max 7 cell 600mah AE NiCad Notes: Flys like its on rails and is quite fast. At 'idle', as slowas the motor will go without being off, this plane must be flying at around40-50mph!!! Lands easily if given enough runway and flys simply awesomein windy conditions. Don't take your eye off it for even a second and keepit in view; quick as lightening, it turns microscopic if left undeviatedfor too long.
- JK Aerotech Eplane - Hitec555 without case Great Planes C20 ESC Dymond 6x3 folder Graupner sp400 6v Hitec HS55 servos max power consumption 8 cells ~ 95 watts weight without battery - 15.25 oz. wingloading ~ 12.3 oz/sqft decibel level - 91 db max 8 cell 600mah AE NiCad Notes: None yet, haven't flown it yet( its freaking 10ºF out)!
