CAP 232 60 size

There was a build log done a while ago by mactabak, but I think it was prior to the last forum crash so it would have all been lost.  I would try a PM and see if you can get any info.  From memory it was set up on 6S.

There is a little info on the discussion page, but nothing conclusive...

Originally posted by Edward Mawson I am running a TURNIGY 50-65B 350kV with a 16x12 APCE and a TURNIGY 60A ESC with switched BEC connected to a Zippy 6S Lipoly setup (I use a single 6S 3300 or a set of 4 x 3S 2200 in 6S2P to give a total of 4400 mAHr). All up weight is 3350g with the 2200's and I metered 1129 W peak. I've only made timed 5 minute flights so far but the power consumption is such that I can probably get 15 minute flights with spare power on hand. To mount the aileron servos I used the existing plates and enlarged the existing slot (from one corner of the slot) for the servos I added blocks to the underside to give something for the screws to cut into. The only funky thing is that the ailerons themselves appear to be hollow so there's no solid wood for the horns to mount on. I balanced (upside down) at 120mm from the front edge of the wing (where it meets the fuselage) as per the manual and that has worked fine for starters. I set up flapperons which I deploy fully - down about 10º for takeoff and she lifts off pretty quickly on about 2/3 throttle. I haven't pushed it yet but have done one vertical climb on almost full throttle and the CAP232 rapidly headed for orbit! I think I can safely say unlimited vertical Not really pushed the CAP232 yet but, so far, she is a pussycat to fly with no annoying tendencies that I've found.

As for the aileron servos there should be a plate on the lower side of the wing that is currently hidden by the covering.  You should be able to run your hand over the wing and find it, then simply cut out the covering to drop the servo in.

First question, what size is the hole for the servo to rop in to?  That would be a good starting point for a servo search.  Then given the dimensions I would be looking for a good strong servo.  I just went to check the reviews under the plane to see what others had been using, but the plane is no longer on the site!

True the last one in stock was snaffled by me , after I ordered one earlier ( I have 2 )
I had to make some modifications so the it would fit into my Hyundai Excell 3 door, the 63" wingspan was a tad to big, I wound up making and fitting a wing spar box so that i have a two piece wing ( there are some pics on rcgroups search for CAP232) The 5065-320/350 from HK are adaquate on a 16x12 TGY prop but a 18x12 is better. Running 2x 3s1p4000 Turnigy in a 6s1p setup, though i have to remove the wing to get to the battery's.
I have a couple of 5055 580 SK series coming and am hoping that the 16x8 3 blade will give the performance i want, hope the trunigy SS60-70 amp ECS will cope with the added amp draw.
The aircraft is a surpurbe  flyer with the CoG at 115mm from the leading edge, as far as the servos go the HXT5010 STD servos work and fit all openings without modification ( yah a little plate under screw points is advised )
With my modifications the weight went a bit high to 3.8 Kg, this accounts for the sluggish performance on the 16x12 in the vertical, with the 18x12 it WILL rise in the vertical but not sprint, the new motor's should improve that aspect.
The motor mount supplied is for the IC version so i got the Alloy one from KH and that worked  brilliantly ( the 5065 is mounted at the extreme back setting possible, so the 5055 will need to be moved forwards, hope this keeps the CoG in the right place )
All up the biggest problem is the battery placement, the rest is gold
