3DHS 70" Velox

Sounds like an awesome match - may have to build me a gas one with that motor.
I too wish that they would make the Velox in bigger sizes! A 50cc one especially...

I'd probably get one

I got to page 29 and then jumped up to see this is still going Nice. Because of SEFF mine will be here someday...

I'd post the video, but you would be cursing at the angle. You can see a little of it's speed in pop tops. It might get parked for a while as Nall prep is going to consume me for weeks. Just got my 104 and 110 out of storage. Flying days are still rare up here as April is the month of wind and mud.

I woke up and felt a sudden urge to own a Velox. Is this normal?

 

[rcbirk21]

yes. but unfortunately it is not specific to the velox....i call it 3dhsyndrome. i get urges almost every day for a different airframe.

Id like one too. And really really want the 50cc edge. White/red. That thing is a beaut!!!

Hey guys,

Looks like I may be building a 70 Velox.

After all the trial and error, what's the consensus?

dle 20 or dle 30?

Thanks!

Mine has a RCGF 26BM which is the correct size motor for this setup. A few ounces more than the 20 and it likes a 18x7 falcon prop. Only issue is that the motor is not proven as I don't know of anyone else with one and I have a gallon through mine. Just don't fly it enough. The 6s 5000 electric setup is hard to beat.

Matt,

I thought about electric, but everything else I have is electric so I was thinking about gas.

How much difference is there in power and response between 6s and a DLE 30?
