Samba.
The Samba is a very simple but highly aerobatic 3D electric powered bundle
of fun. Construction is all built up and there is very very little for
the builder to do. The wing is finished in one piece, so are the
tailplane and fuselage etc. These just need to be assembled together,
(the wing bolts on), the radio installed, the motor system
installed and decals added.
The choice of power pack
is very varied and is left up to the modeller. Modellers building this
model will have reasonable experience of electric flight and will have
already developed preferences for power plants. We would suggest that
a 480 sized Cobalt motor is about the minimum required for reasonable
aerobatics but full potential will be realised with a brushless system,
particularly an outrunner type motor.
This model is for
experienced modellers and no instructions are provided, the procedure is
obvious and modellers will have their own way of proceeding.
So if you want real
electric fun dance the Samba. |
