Corobra....pronounced (Kor-O`-Bra)....It had to happen

Well I`ve had too much time on my hands and too much Coro to play with. I`ve been pretty impressed with how the Coro Falcon flys and the fact that the weight is not that bad. So, why not. Had to build a Coro Cobra. The prototype SSC weight came in at 44oz with a 5s 2200 lipo. That`s with 3 1oz servo...

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

Hey Craig, what`s up? Yeah, I hear ya. I would never have thought this would work, but you never know unless you try. I started playing with some little flat coro style wings just for fun. Something to fly right outside my back door. But then I built the 48" Falcon with an airfoil and was shock...

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

I`ve added pics of the SSC bird to the RCG thread. Here`s the link. I`ll be adding some simple plans and construction pics soon.

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

I`ve finished up what I would concider a mass production prototype of an SSC version today. It`s been raining all day, so I haven`t flown it. The RTF weight came in at 42.7oz, with a 5s 2200 lipo. It would be about 45oz with a 6s 2200. I`m happy with that weight. It has a real 17,500 SSC system on i...

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

I`ve got the 64" SSC bird flying nicely. Right now the weight on the first one is 45oz. I`ll look to trim a little bit more weight off, but that`s not bad for a SPAD. I`ll try to get some video with a real SSC power system on it this weekend. Also Open B video.

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

Yeah, those are my new digs Roy. I love it! Just step out the back door and fly. Can`t beat it. Sure makes getting everything test flown easy. I don`t use a "real" SSC power system because of the noise it makes, but I can match speed and weight with a quiet rpm/prop, then use the 8/3 when ...

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

Here is a link to my thread on RCG. The RGC forums are much more user friendly, so I`m going to continue the thread there. Posting pics is easier and you can embed video in the thread. I`m going to post some simple plans and some build pics and tips in case anyone else wants to build one. This one f...

Re: Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

Thanks Dane. This was a little experiment. trying to come up with an instant (1hr build time) combat plane that your average e-flyer wouldn't mind flying in combat. I was also looking for something that would work with the basic 3696 motor/esc combo, even if a diff battery and prop were needed for g...

Club combat SPAD construction Falcon

Hi Guys. Here is a slick little combat plane that is quick to build and flys great. It has darn good performance on a 3s 2200 and Open B style performance on 4s. At least it feels that way. Just some pics for now, but I`ll follow with some video and plans/construction pics. This little beast also ha...
