Hookll PT-17 Biplane 1200mm Wingspan EPO RC Airplane KIT/PNP Scaled Fixed-wing Zoomed Aircraft
A part of the review has been auto-translated.
Received quickly! At the aesthetic level, superb very realistic finish, the adjustment between the parts is good especially at the level of the wings, only the engine hood has a slight play but in no way disturbing the proper functioning. The installation is simple and fast. In terms of in-flight behaviour, I needed to take back the pricker and the engine anti-torque because it was soaring at acceleration and pulling straight to the left, But once the settings are resumed the flight is pleasant and nice at 55/60% gas. With a 3000mAh 4S battery and at this speed, I can potentially fly for 13-14 minutes! I am delighted with my purchase and can only recommend it!
The delivery time was only 14 days to Germany. Very well packed in a sturdy carton. The parts are also very well secured against moving, accordingly the delivery was not damaged externally. I have not been able to test how the engine, the regulator and the servo work. At first glance the model looks beautiful. On closer inspection, however, I am disturbed that the wheels have no hubcaps as advertised - a pity, because these little things are just the attraction of a scale model! It is now known that only one pilot bust instead of two are included (the model has been around for a very long time, in former times among other manufacturer frames and with two pilot busts). Unfortunately, the included pilot bust is very massive and at least twice as heavy as comparable from my assortment. Because the figure is clearly behind the centre of gravity and the model in front needs weight, this is bad. That is why I will replace this bust in this model with a lighter-pity. There is even some tool in it; the glue may not be supplied any more for safety reasons and therefore additional freight costs. All in all, the joy of the beautiful model prevails, despite the discrepancies. I can't say anything about the flight characteristics yet, but I still trust the good reviews.
