Here is Mike Kappes from Alexandria, Kentucky with his electric Hobby Hangar OV-10 model. I’ll let him tell the story:
I know mine was not the best job but I can still do some more detail. I have done mine in Olive Drab Coverall and plan to do part of the top in White for a surface to tell the angle it is flying. I am open to suggestions though. I built mine electric like Greg Gimlick. I was testing the plane in my street, I live on a cul-de-sac. With a 7 cell battery pack, I could tell that was not enough power for takeoff. But it was fun to play with though. About 2 weeks ago, I finally built my first 14 cell 2000 mah battery pack. I made the mistake of cranking it up in my radio room and blew the plan of the Bronco off the wall. I was glad I had a good hold on it! I think I have enough power for takeoff now.
Great work, Mike, let’s see some flight pictures soon!!
