HobbyKing New Products http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/HobbyKing_New_RC_Products.asp?orderBy=recently Latest items Sun, 26 May 2013 02:13:56 GMT Thu, 23 May 2013 23:28:31 GMT <![CDATA[NEW PRODUCT: Phoenix 2000 EPO Composite R/C Glider (ARF) (USA warehouse)]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=41723

This 2 meter wingspan glider takes 15 minutes to assemble and lasts a lifetime!
The wings and tail are made from tough EPO foam. However, the fuselage is made from a really strong blow moulded nylon skin*, Usually reserved for baby toys, with plywood formers, making it almost indestrucatable.

The virtually indestrucatable fuselage is smooth and ridgid yet still light enough for the glider to perform. Both the main wing and tail are screwed into place and the two wing halves have a carbon fiber rod for added strength.

The main wing requires 1 servo per aileron for strong control surface movement plus there is a pre-moulded slot so you can add your own flaps later. To complete this model you will require 4 9g servos, a 30A speed controller, a brushless outrunner, your own transmitter and receiver (Tx/Rx) and a 1300~1800mAh Lipoly battery.

This really is a super strong glider that takes 15 minutes to put together.

Spec.
Wingspan: 2 meters (78.74inch)
Length: 1160mm
Flying Weight: 980g
Servos: 4 x 9g (Required)
Motor: Brushless 2815/1050Kv (Required)
ESC Included: 30A (Required)

Required.
4 x 9g Servos
2815/1050Kv Brushless Motor with a 3mm shaft
30A ESC
LiPoly 1300~1800mAh 3S
Receiver

*Having a blow moulded fuselage on a glider is an excellent solution however it is not popular amongst manufacturers due to its high cost, effectively doubling moulding costs.

Rotortech luminous series of 3D night blades for 50 size helis are built by the same factory that makes (those) top branded blades you see rebranded in the USA and UK..
These blades are switched on by centrifugal force, so you dont need a switch or plug to turn them on/off and wont waste battery power when landed. The battery comes seperate and fits securely inside the blade grip so you can have several battery packs for the night or replace the battery easily should it become faulty. Traditional night blades would require a complete replacement if one battery was faulty or low on capacity.

You wont find a higher quality set of night-blades anywhere.

The Stinger 64 MK2 has taken "style" to a whole new level with its vibrant new paint scheme and wicked graphics! We've also added metal gear servos and upped the power with an all new 4S EDF system, the Stinger 64 MK2 now has all the speed and performance that you're looking for right out of the box! 
 
The EPO construction & pre-applied decals are all excellent quality, in fact as you are assembling the Stinger your confidence grows with it, everything is just "right". Assembly time is really fast, the servos, EDF & ESC all being pre-installed. The aileron servo arms are protected by covers, there are hand launch pockets molded into the under-wing, really strong magnets for the canopy & a nice clean battery bay where everything fits just so, this jet has been really well thought out.
 
The Stinger MK2 looks great and manages to fly even better! There is a servo per elevator and of course it has an effective rudder as all Sport Jets should. All of the servos are metal geared and are mounted at the rear with short control rods, the end result is precision. Although this jet features a powerful new 4S EDF system and can tear up the skies when you want, it's not just all about full throttle...it has a large flight envelope and is quite happy flying at low speed, ultra stable and ultra predictable. This makes the Stinger MK2 ideal for the budding jet pilot, but wind it up and it becomes a brilliant aerobatic model! Jet aerobatics always look exciting and there is nothing the Stinger MK2 can't do and almost effortlessly.

I retap all my tail rotor hubs so I can set the clearance between screw head and bearings. I fit the screws with permanent locktite and have never had one let go." ye this one is already to deep, to get it right is a longer bolt but then the other side must be modified to to keep the hole assembly in balance. ]]> <![CDATA[Upgrade time : timmy1]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42502 <![CDATA[need confirmation before placing order : Srijal Poojary]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39855 <![CDATA[HK500GT Tail Victim : WTWUK]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13450 <![CDATA[ZIPPY Flightmax 2500mAh Transmitter Pack Futaba/JR : thunderball]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42501 ZIPPY Flightmax 2500mAh Transmitter Pack (Futaba/JR)]]> <![CDATA[Additional links PLEAE! : TangledMess]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42500
I would love to be a customer, but you beat me at every turn. I want to buy several of the following Tx for myself and kids.

OrangeRx T-SIX 2.4GHz DSM2 6CH Programmable Transmitter w/10 Model Memory (Mode 2) (USA warehouse)

I know NOTHING abut this hobby yet so a statement like this

Requires:
... or 2S transmitter battery w/JST plug

It is just plain silly not to have that as link to the battery AND charger that I need to order.

I did a search on "2S transmitter battery w/JST plug" and got about 1000 batteries and I still do not know which ones to buy, much less the chargers to suit.

I am getting frustrated and fast losing patience with trying to save some bucks by buying from you.

It is not worth the aggravation to now have to come here and ask questions on how to help you sell more stuff.

PLEASE get your web team to make that "Requires" stuff into links.

<![CDATA[HK500GT Tail Victim : Uitsig]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=13450
I've been reading about tail rotor problems on the HK500 helicopter in the forums, I also found a defective part on the tail rotor assembly.
The tail rotor hub on the one end has been drilled and tape to deep causing friction on the bearing when tightening the bolt holding the tail rotor holder.

The other end is fine and the bolt can be tighten with no friction on the bearing.

I'm not going to risk everything with a drop or two thread lock hoping this will hold the bolt in place, if a bolt is not tight thread lock would hold it there.... a accident waiting to happen.

<![CDATA[HK 500 GT metal tail holder query : Uitsig]]> http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbycity/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=36848 According to the hk500 manual the tail rotor holder uses a 3x8mm socket head screw and the tail rotor hub a 3x16mm socket head screw.
Hope this help.
