Much more advanced than Arduino, its Matek F405 wing board, runs Inav flight software with gps, so it does auto level in angle or Horizon or cruise mode RTH allows the plane to come back and loiter at the launch point the board also controls live video with full OSD showing battery levels, and much much more 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert_w164 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Very sophisticated and interesting! Would love to see it running 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BigGinge Posted June 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 30, 2021 More boxes for small parts. This time the sections are just the right size for what I want but there aren’t any removable tubs in this model (there is one with tubs but it costs about five times as much). So I have broken out the 3D printer to make some up; it might take a while to fill them up but should keep me happy for now. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BigGinge Posted July 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2021 Phat bodies kaboom shell to go on the little buggy (assuming it fits). Gives me chance to practice painting a shell before the kit for the next little one turns up too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 For me, the Max 8 2200kv combo is the Bread and Butter of R/C. They were on offer on Align Trex, so I picked one up. My intention was to get my EXB running again.... Since I ordered, Ive sold the EXB, so now I've got two of these for 1 R/C Worth keeping for something I guess 🙂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I initially pre ordered this as soon as I could as I love the Tamiya Cosworth, I used to have the Repsol TA-02 back in the day, theyre crazy money now so this re re is the next best thing. Then circumstances changed. I went with an X Maxx and cancelled this order to save some money. My girlfriend asked me a few days ago when it was coming, I told her Id cancelled and she was genuinely annoyed with me as she was looking forward to building it with me (she had no idea kits were a thing). An interaction with Modelsport on Instagram, £150 later and the next day: Im absolutely skint now!! Genuinely! No electrics, no idea if itll ever run, but we are looking forward to building it together 🙂 Have you had much use out of this? I’ve a real hankering for a 1:10 road model as this is what I first had as a kid. can’t help but think it will just end up an ornament on the shelf?

I brought it to be an ornament on the shelf to be fair. I didnt intend ever putting electrics in it. But it does run, although Ive never actually took it out yet. i used to have all these as “ornaments” lol. Just in my home office at the time. The Civic and Impreza were highly upgraded and brushless that ran. The Civic I definately used outside, dont recall running the Impreza actually The Focus TL01 was one I had as a kid so brought one sealed in box and stupidly built it and painted it, but never used. The Repsol TA02 I brought used with the intention of restoring, but parts were ridiculous price so never bothered. I never even opened the 934 Turbo RSR box, and built the black one up but never ran it (I like Porsche 964s as my Dad had a red 1:1 964 when I was a kid). The Scirocco was cause I had a White Scirroco 1:1 at the time, that never ran either The Ferrari was, well a Ferrari Its a waste of money to be fair. Look at them as £130-£500 scale models….
