Radio Controlled Mosquito

Ive been relly surprised with this mossie - Its a superb looking model well made with a big thick aluminium main spar. Flying wise shes a breeze I built mine for brushless motor power using 2 x 700 class motors spinning 9x6 props at 9000rpm. Take of was good no real probs - she tracked nice and straight. On 2 x 11v Lipos i seemed to have plenty of power for scale flight although more volts would help acrobatics. I reccomend you move the Cof G forward of the instructions I found on landing with the flaps deployed the model would pitch nose - Gentle use of the flaps helps. All that said it looks amazing in the air and as a little sub note I took her for some PSS slope gliding fun and she performed very very well

The Mosquito, like a number of other superb aircraft, was born of private venture not a government specification. The De Havilland company decided to take out all that was thought unnecessary in the way of defensive armament and protection when they designed the Mosquito. The weight saving and superbly streamlined design would increase the speed so much that defence would not be necessary; nothing would catch the Mosquito. How right they were.
The model is fast too relying on 2 x 40 power. We have flown it with two outrunner motors equally successfully. Constructed using a glass fibre fuselage and wing centre section with built up outer wing panels. All parts are spray painted to give the camouflage pattern finish.
