zone8 Senior Heliman Location: Ireland
| Since some time ago I asked whether my new stretched Acrobatic (810mm blades) was capable of mild aerobatics and no-one was able to give me a definitive answer, I would like to say that it can. Today for the first time I've been doing some nice flips etc. with the standard clutch and the standard 230RC engine (1340 rpm headspeed).
So both myths are busted: there is no need to upgrade to the heavy duty clutch and/or to a more powerful or even ported engine (although of course the long boom Acrobatic as it is - like many other helis - would clearly benefit from a more powerful motor). |
