Looks fun, if I had a yard, I would be more into smaller planes like that. We do have a little park I could use. I wonder if I shouldn't look into a smaller plane with a gyro like that. Let me know how it deals with wind. I don't know what your wind is like up there in the arctic. |

Let me know how it deals with wind. I don't know what your wind is like up there in the arctic. Actually having a really warm fall, wind is always up. Did you buy your dolphin as a kit?I saw a deal just on the kit for 130 Cad but wasn't sure how good a deal that was. I like that plane. Sucks evrything at US Banggood warehouse can't ship to Canada. I believe there is P 40 version available same brand. Few warbirds available. As you know its all about the right deal at the right time. |

I believe there is P 40 version available same brand. Few warbirds available. As you know its all about the right deal at the right time. I bought the kit, the stock motor is pretty good. The esc doesn't have capacitors on it, so you need to install capacitors in the line of you are sourcing your power through a flight controller, otherwise, it is probably fine. I don't know about the servos on it. I put metal gears on it, but the stock ones could very well be fine. The plane ended up not being as fast as I thought it was it runs 120-130kmh on the stock set up, and I think the plastic ones would work fine. Honestly, it is a bit more docile than the dragon, you couldn't tell by looking at it, but yeah. Lots of people buy them to hop up with a beast motor and a 60a esc and fly them LOS because they're aerodynamic. |

I had a p-51 and a f4u that was the same scale and those things are loads of fun, is the motor geared? If its any thing like the ones I had watch the prop side Bering it will pop out of its socket or go out of round and not hold it anymore.

Wow that looks cool I want to collect some tiny airplanes that I can fly in the park across the street and I have always wanted to do the rarebear.

I have horrendous luck with tiny planes. Maybe I should buy a prebuilt one.

Was hoping to try it out but I guess that will have to wait until Nicole blows through lol. I have a couple more on the way that I scored good deals on as well. At the very least I will have some micro gear to work with lmao. |

I have been considering a mini fighter jet or something like that. |

So it looks like the rare Bear is getting the 2S upgrade. Very little to do to make conversion, motor mounted perfectly to the existing gear drive mount. The original brick was actually mounted onto a plate with screws so removing that and having a place for Byme gyro and mini receiver worked out good. Servos are arriving today and I don't anticipate any problem with installing those other than I will have to change the connectors on them. By far that is the tiniest brushless motor I have ever seen LOL! Going with the OG prop for this as well.  20240131_061844 by Chris McIntyre, on Flickr  20240131_061833 by Chris McIntyre, on Flickr  20240131_061810 by Chris McIntyre, on Flickr |

Is that a 1106 motor? Those are cute. My 450mm wing has one. I think I was supposed to put one on my willy nillies duster too but I put a 1406 instead lol.

Its an 1104, 3700Kv. Had to do a little research on the receiver. It came with a connector that had two ends on it, one had just a yellow wire, the other had the usual 3 wires(Red,Black, white) Found out I had to switch the yellow wire with the the white wire on that connector. Once I did that everything was good. Just servos left to install and this puppy is ready to go. I have marked on picture which wires swap out to work with Byme A gyro and this receiver.
