Ares - P-51D Mustang 350 Obsession

This is the maiden flight of my friends new Ares - P-51D Mustang 350 Obsession. We used a 600mah 3S (I think it was 25C or 35C...sorry I can't remember), which allowed for more than ample power. Nice slowdown for landing, but the gear were very poorly attached, and have broken off with EVERY landing. I suppose if you really greased them, they'd stay...and tonight, after her 3rd flight, I made a rough landing and broke the 4 blade prop, but luckily they're less than $4.00. Just plan on getting spare spinners as they "snap on" and when you need to open her back up, they snap in half! We chose to run a Lemon-RX 7 channel DSMX receiver with dual diversity antenna and stabilization, with all gains turned up to the max and attached to AUX3 (the right spinner) of my friends DX8 Gen2 and throws set to +150% / -150% for maximum in flight adjustability to stabilization. We also use the gear channel to turn on or off the stabilizer on the fly as well. I love this receiver, and use it on most any of my planes not equipped with AS3X and/or SAFE.

Thanks for watching!
