The FlatOut Turmoil ARF requires a 3-cell (11.1V), 350-
700mAh lithium-polymer (LiPo) battery capable of providing
7A continuous discharge current. For long flight times and
good performance, we recommend the ElectriFly 3-cell, 3-
Series 640mAh battery pack (GPMP0805). For minimum
weight, at the expense of some flight time, the ElectriFly 3-cell,
3-Series 350mAh battery pack (GPMP0801) works well. Note:
The ElectriFly 700mAh battery is not recommended for this
model as it is not capable of delivering the current required by
this system. For optimum performance battery weight should
not exceed 2.3 oz. [65g].
An electronic speed control capable of handling a minimum of
7A continuous current is required. Additionally, the speed control
should be as light as possible. The ElectriFly C-10
Micro High-
Frequency ESC w/BEC (GPMM2010) is suitable. If upgrading to
the optional brushless motor system recommended (below), a
speed control intended for brushless motors (a
brushless speed
control) capable of at least 8A continuous current such as the
ElectriFly BL-8 (GPMM2070) must be used. NEVER use speed
controllers intended for brushed motors on brushless
motors (and vice-versa).
A charger capable of charging 3-cell (11.1V) LiPo batteries such
as the ElectriFly PolyCharge 1-3-cell LiPo charger (GPMM3010)
must be used. If using another charger, it must be a LiPo
charger or have a LiPo charge mode. Never charge LiPo
batteries with chargers not intended for LiPo batteries or
chargers on NiMH or NiCd settings. Overcharging or explosion
may result. In addition to the PolyCharge, the ElectriFly Triton
™
(GPMM3150) or Accu-Cycle
™
Elite (HCAP0280) are also
suitable chargers.
Many chargers (including the Triton and Accu-Cycle Elite
listed above) do not include charging leads, but rather have
banana jacks to plug the leads into. If this is the case with
your charger, you will need to purchase a charge lead to
match your battery. For the recommended 640mAh pack,
the correct lead is GPMM3105.
Rest assured, the FlatOut Turmoil ARF is capable of 3D flight
with the included ElectriFly “stick-mount” motor and gearbox
combination. But for pilots who always insist on upgrading and
don’t mind spending a little extra money, the ElectriFly Rimfire
22M-1000 brushless motor (GPMG4500) will provide increased
power and flight time while simultaneously reducing weight.
Don’t forget, if upgrading to a brushless motor, a “brushless”
speed controller such as the ElectriFly BL-8 8-Amp ESC
(GPMM2070) must be used. This kit also includes the firewall
and instructions for mounting a brushless motor.
A 10 x 3.5 propeller is included in this kit, and this propeller
offers the best performance with the included motor system. If
you are upgrading to the RimFire brushless motor, a 9 x 3.5
propeller is recommended.
Though there may be a few different types of adhesives that
the FlatOut Turmoil ARF could be assembled with, we have
had the best success with, and exclusively recommend
foam-safe CA such as 1 oz. Great Planes Foam Safe Thick CA
(GPMR6072). Regular CA is not recommended as it will
aggressively attack the foam used in this model. In addition
to being foam-compatible, foam-safe CA is also suitable for
gluing together all of the rest of the materials (balsa, carbon)
included in this kit. No other adhesive is required to build the
FlatOut Turmoil ARF.
In addition to common household tools and hobby tools, this
is the “short list” of the most important items required to build
the FlatOut Turmoil ARF.
Great Planes Pro CA and Epoxy
glue are recommended.
