The
Skyhawk is a n excellent flyer but needs a bungee
launch to get going, In comparison with the Skyray
it needs a bit more "twang" to launch it safely.
Then it has to pick up speed for a few meters , and
then....
enjoy the jet feeling of the Skyhawk with loops and
rolls.
With the Plettenberg 200-20-6 and 10 cells 1250mAh
it fly's for 3 minutes ok,
With a Kontronik Fun 480-33 and 12 cells 1250mAh it
fly's with great authority and speed. The Skyhawk
needs a 8mmx7,5mtr bungee with 8kg of pulling power.
