Re: Project Cox .049 r/c & Citabrian Champion
Well, for those who are interested in the Citabria Champion, I'll tell you, today I went to try it and here is my experience:
I couldn't fly it, nor could I get it to really go straight and gain speed, the engine's impact kept pulling it to the left making it impossible to fly, I corrected it from the radio, but it wasn't enough to compensate for the effect. In addition to that, I'm thinking about changing the engine, this Cox .049 with a single transfer doesn't have enough power to be able to pull it with authority, I changed several propellers, but it didn't help much, perhaps if it were a larger model, then the wing surface would take care of lifting at low speed. Nothing to worry about, a couple of tumbles on the ground but at such a low altitude nothing happens, so here I am already evaluating whether to modify the fairing, change the engine incidence significantly and also fit a Tee Dee... I think about it a bit... "I was left wanting to do some flights, but they will come!.... the Chambion Citabria has its fame for reducing the size significantly, well, patience and recalculation... greetings to all
