Hello! How may I assist your shopping experience? Did you have a question about the delta ray?
I really like my Delta Ray. Would like to get more powerful motors do you have or recommend a replacement. Can I install a ruder servo?
Joe C.
sorry no that can't be done easily
also a rudder would interfere with the stability system
the designers tried to do the best they could for the price
if you wanted to modify it you could
but that would require removing the power system and the radio system
but you could re use the servos
I got this plane for my soon 24 to get him back to the field with me. He out grew it to P-51s. He flew before. I am stuck with the Delta Ray because it is so beautiful in the air. Just trying to upgrade it a bit.
Joe C.
ok
you'd likely need to strenthen the motor mounts/nacilles also
or perhaps remove them entirely and install your own mounts
it can be done with some enginuity but we don't have any "drop in" parts for it
Will try to find better motors. Do not need much more. Do not want to abuse the ESC.
Joe C.
you would need to remove that too
basically remove all items except servos
Thanks for your time.
Joe C.
you're welcome
