OT: R/C Plane FS/FT


I know Some of you were interested so.



it is a SIG Cadet LT.40 , I dont remember the Engine size, but the electronics are futaba. I would like to think that I built it good, I took my time and didnt rush it. I know that I did buy the biggest engine that would fit that chassis of the plane so it is probably the larger of the two. It is at my parents shop, I will snap some pic tommorrow of it and post them. I have over $500.00 into it with electronics engine etc... So i would let it go for $250.00 Which would cover the motor and the electronics alone, and like I stated before, I have never used this thing, built it and never could get anyone to teach me how to fly it, I did not want to risk flying it on my own and crashing it the engine is a OS MAX-46AX, and the electronics are Futaba Skysport 4YF.


I am in need of a good protien skimmer, I would also take cash $200.00 or so, Or some nice LPS frags.












PM me if interested, I live in Lake Elmo so if someone wants to see it they can call me or PM me, 651-755-1777

thanks again

Scott

Smeese! have you flown? The sig kadet is one of the slowest most forgiving trainers! This is one of the most perfect trainers for learning to fly! I cannot express to you the importance of getting an instructor!!!! If you do not get an instructor you will CRASH! I guarantee it! If you have flown, then you know what I am talking about!

Thanks for the compliments! Although I thought the Sherriff was looking for me this morn, when you stopped by! I am glad you could make it down. For the rest of you, Scott pulled up in a former sheriff car, with a License plate UNDCVR. LOL Creative thinking!!

Just for posterities sake, yes, all trainers are slow flying compared to other sport planes. They are made to fly very well very slowly. This way you as a new pilot have time to react before you make it into a pretty pile of tooth picks.

your going to fly at about 30-40 mph, top end about 50mph level. Nose dive directly into a pile of toothpicks that depends on your altitude! super slow on a calm day 10-20mph
