Great Planes Electrifly Cap 580 |
I've enjoyed flying my Reflection for a couple years now. I was pretty disappointed to see that it has been discontinued. However, I've always wanted to try one of the single wing models. I chose the Cap580.
03/66/2008 - Parts ordered
I ordered the plane and some glue. Since the plan is to use the
electronics from the broken Reflection, this should be a cheap swap.
03/15/2008 - Built the plane
I built the plane over the past 2 days. I don't know who can build one of these
in "2 to 3 hours" as it says on the box, but it sure ain't me. I took all
the electronics from the Reflection and put them on this plane. It's ready
to fly, just haven't had the time yet.
04/14/2009 - Flew a few times
I've flown this plane a few times over the last 13 months. Nothing really
exciting. It doesn't fly like the Reflection, but it has it's moments.
No crashes or repairs.
