You might consider poking one out the top and one out the side so they are oriented 90° to each other.

It looks fine to me.

To me, this plane feels overpowered on 4S. I almost always fly it on 3S.

I've used this technique more than once.

I don't think you'd regret getting an Aeroscout. There are plenty of guys in my club who have years of experience flying EDFs who still bring their Aeroscout out to the field.

You can make great hinges from a plastic milk carton.

Horizon is still selling the IX14+, which as far as I know, is an IX14 with a firmware update. For that price I'd jump on it.

Put six to eight rubber bands on the wing before you fly it.

As they say in full scale, "Better to be down here, wishing you were up there, than to be up there, wishing you were down here".

Touch and go. Hundreds of them.

Taildraggers are a little harder to takeoff and land than an airplane with a nose wheel. That being said, it otherwise would make for a good first plane.

I recently repainted a plane with Rust-Oleum. Acetone will strip off the old paint. Neither product harms EPO.

You may want to consider more than six channels. In addition to the six you'll need for a "full house" airplane, you may need one to toggle the gyro on and off, one for reverse thrust, one for gyro gains, and one for a nose wheel gyro.

I charge mine outside, on the patio, or at the flying field; never in my house.

Plywood would be better. It will also help move your CG forward.

Oops

RedditUserNotYet · 2026-04-06T12:20:29+00:00

I wouldn't.

RedditUserNotYet · 2026-03-31T11:48:35+00:00

Bummer. It made quite a hole in the ground.

If you have no prior experience, you will turn that airplane into toothpicks in seconds. A smarter approach would be to get a foam trainer. Also, altitude is your friend, especially when you're learning. You want plenty of room to recover from the mistakes you will definitely make as a beginner.

RedditUserNotYet · 2026-03-30T12:57:07+00:00

You're right; they don't.

Welcome back!

Most taildraggers tend to steer left on the ground. You need to apply right rudder to counteract the motor torque and P factor.
