Freewing MIG 15

Brian You are writing post quicker than I can read them slow down.

I saw Jon's mod Phil, very short control run with servo in the fin, nice positive action. Downside is that the model needs a big LiPo to bring the C of G forward to compensate for the weight of the servo. I think there might be a good chance that with a tighter tuning circle and minimum loss of height, you might find the MIG on your six before you know it Phil.(Tagga-Tagga-Tagga) Been wanting to do that since BoB 1969!

No chance up against the Panther and my wingmen (well most of them).:lol:

Keep watching your six Brubaker.

I've been flying the Mig on 1300mAh 3S batteries, only short 3minute flights. Freewing recommend 1600mAh 3S, but I only have1300 and 2200. I wondered about trying a 2200 3S but it needs more space to be able to get the battery in and out easily. I had another look at the Petrincic brothers video of the MIG-15 test flight. They have made a new video, the original showed "Cheat Holes" to improve performance, but the new video shows an unmodified model, initially failing to fly on a 1600mAh LiPo, and then going very well indeed on a 2700 3S LiPo. Perhaps it might be worth trying to fit a 2200mAh 3S after all.
