Pulsar 2E REF (ARF)

Just tried switching to the ridiculously light TP 850mah 2s 70C battery brought her weight down to 18.5 oz and CG back to 78mm from leading edge ( 3mm behind reccomended) wasn't sure what to expect at this CG and weight,, but,,, she pleasantly surprised me yet again!! Had to dial down my elevator rate and expo to compensate for more elevator sensitivity,, but WOW!!! She REALLLY REALLY flys fantastic now!!! And that's saying ALOT cause she flew great at my starting weight of 20.2 oz and CG at 72mm ( that was with 1800 mah 2s battery)

Got this plane for ALES,, even though it is a little on the small side. Have about 50+ flights on her now, have flown her in two ALES comps so far,, got 2nd place in my very first ever ALES comp with this beauty. I have her set up with the hacker B20 12L motor on TP 1300 mah 2s 70C battery, aeronaught 12x8 prop , Jeti spin pro 33amp ESC,, used hi tec digital HS 5035 nano servos in tail to keep tail light in order to get CG right with the very lightweight 1300 mah 2s battery up front,, AUW is 19.5oz. Surprising how brisk the climb is on only 2S with the hacker,, I get up to 200 meters in 15-17 secs. She flys like a dream!! Not quite the same L/D as the bigger 3m + ships but very very good for her size,, with about 70degs of flap she slows down very nicely to walking speed with excellent glide path control,, the single large flap also allows for good speed range in camber or reflex,, she has a surprisingly good speed range and is also very very responsive,, very very sensitive to very small trim elevator trim changes. Very very easy to fly for sport flying,,, but very challenging to fly her efficiently . Spot landings at her weight and speed are a piece of cake!! Just bring her in with flaps down over spot you Wana land,, hit reflex and She just plop softly straight down on the spot,, she can turn very very quickly on a dime!! Be careful of elevator throw,, is very very sensitive to elevator. Very different flying experience than a radian type plane,, you pretty much have to be on her all the time if you want effecient flying. She'll reward you with fantastic flying if you have her set up right and fly her efficiently ,,, but,,, she'll REALLY bite you if you fly her poorly. I can pretty consistantly get between 6-7 min in perfectly calm no lift air from 200 meter launch with a little camber. Because of her size I can fly her from some pretty tight landing areas with no problems,, and also easy for me to carry her around in back of my car all the time.
