The Great Planes CAP232 equipped with 2 Hitec 225BB and 1 Hitec 85BB servos, Hitec 555 Receiver, 550 mh receiver battery, Aveox F27 motor, Aveox H260 ESC, and 18 RC2000 batteries. All up weight came in at 6 3/4lbs.
Built per the planes but with most of the ply parts replaced with balsa. |
By replacing all ply but 2 formers, fuse doublers and firewall I was able to save over 8oz of wood weight. |
With over 100 watts per Pound and a 15 inch prop this plane flies very well for about 5 minutes of hard aerobatics. |
