This a great jet to transition from an Elan. In some ways it’s probably easier to fly then the Elan! As far as the finish goes, I have mentioned it in a past post. For the price I feel that the...

As I’ve mentioned I think it’s important to consider the cost of this jet compared to its competitors. It’s FAR less then the competition, so this is to be expected. To demand perfection at this...

Sorry for the delay, here are a few pictures with the tape sealing the gaps. It’s pretty hard to see that there’s tape on there. It’s a little more tricky on the bottom side, but not difficult. ...

I would judge it by how it flies inverted more then how much up trim is showing. My elevator looks to be 2-3mm up, however it doesn’t need much down input when inverted.

I am away from home until Sunday night, I should be able to post some pictures for you when I get home. However with the clear duck tape (essentially stronger/thicker clear packing tape) its nearly...

Mine also has some inconstant gaps on the stab. I used clear duct tape to seal the gaps. Over 100 flights and no problems. I figure this jet is much less expensive then others, so some...

Very nice paint!

1. Are the factory servos all HV servos? Prefer straight 2s lipo over regulated voltage. - depends on which version. 20AH are high voltage and 20AL are not. You can find that...

I put about 100 flights on my turbine ready version and the servos are working great. I found the flaps could use a little more power, but they work just fine. I am very satisfied with the Pilot...

Since this is my first turbine I a few questions:
1. What size turbine 120, 140, or 170?

I fly mine with a 140 (Cheetah 140, so more like a 150) and I find it perfect. No residual thrust to deal...

Servos

I’ve been using the Pilot servos that came with the turbine ready thrust vectoring version. I have about 75 -100 flights so far and no problems at all. Has been my most reliable plane all summer.

Not sure of the tire size, but it flies just fine off if grass. I have only flown mine off of grass this season, intact it makes for very nice smooth landings. Grass is a bit more forgiving then...

I have mine set at the recommended CG and love the way it flies. Yes, it’s slightly nose heavy (really ever so slight. I have no problems scraping the tail on landing) and there is a few MM of up...

Not sure what you’re asking, but there’s 8 pages of info on the predator, plus on their website it lists everything that comes with. I’m assuming your asking about the tail pipe? There’s plenty of...
