New updates (22/02): Change prop to 9x4 slow fly prop now I can have better stability with stock motor. Much better control. Now souka is my fav early morning plane. Everyday I must fly her at least 1 pack.
Updates: Finally I've got souka tune up to my flying style. All I can say this plane rock. To me my only requirement for any 3D plane is can it hover without any bad habit..well I can say now this plane rock solid. I can hover souka just like I hover my Piaget. Get the battery back off a bit and never use prop saver. Reduce my aileron EPA to 80% then my souka behave just like I want it.
Bought this plane from namlee hobby with bargain price..nice dealing with them..fast service and delivery. One day top and the kit on my desk.
It takes me 4 hours top to assemble this kit. Most of the hinge pre-mark. That takes the measuring out of the picture. I use my trusty foam safe CA to bring this plane together.
all stock electronic from namlee. But be sure that the servo supposedly 8g but mine comes with 9g. This size will not fit the wooden servo case and need some modification to the case.
Position of the electronics. My lipo is 1000mah 3s1p 15C. Should be enough for 415g plane.
This time I've decided to use the landing skid. Seems tough enough to handle hard landing.
A little tricky to create the pushrod for all the control surface. All my fingers smudge with CA to adjust the linkage rod. I use the longest servo arm to get full travel for all the flaps.
Will maiden today at peremba. We'll see how this plane perform.
Updates....maiden video by am..first portion of the video was blur due to wrong setting..a bit of CG issues the rest souka fly like a dream. Second battery move the battery back a little bit then there she was hovering around. Now I have both piaget and souka will be used late evening 3D training plane.
