Skylark S

The Skylark S is a bit of a transition plane for me. It should be capable enough to perform sport flying, even a bit of 3D. It’s the next step up from my Riot. At the end of the day, the air frame kit was £37, so if it ends up in pieces, it’s not too bad. Certainly better than crashing my balsa EFlite Extra 260. I’ve installed the S6R receiver to give me a fighting chance.

The maiden was successful, but I had way too much movement in the control surfaces. I’ve dialled it down a lot now, and it’s pretty good. The new SunnySky X2216 III 1250KV motor is pretty impressive. The biggest problem with this plane is how small it gets, quickly!
