CAP232-15S


CAP232-15S
Powered by: SAITO 30 Four Stroke Engine
Fuel: 30% Nitro Cool Power
Servos: 5 units - Futaba Digital Servo [S9650]
Battery: 2150mAh - Ni-Cad
Receiver: JR 7 Channel PCM [JRPR790] 72Mhz
Switch: JR Antenna: DEANS
















Description: It's actually an electric aeroplane size 15. But I converted it into a GLOW engine plane by adding modified Engine Mount & Fuel Tank. The Landing skids had been re-inforced with 'Balsa' wood to strengthened it (Saito 30 is bit heavy)(design for brushless motor - lighter as compared to glow engine).


The CAP232 is actually 'Over-Powered', the 'Throttle' curve have to be set until 50% Full Throttle, instead of 100% Linear curve.
[This setting chosen coz during 'Maiden' almost crashed it (High Speed Stall), manage it due to fact @ High Altitude]

Very Maneuvarable & stable BUT not in windy conditions (below 15mph).
