Radio Equipment:
Airborne Radio Components... A good, reliable radio system is essential to the enjoyment and safe operation of your Fokker D.VII.
We use and highly recommend Hitec radio equipment for this model. We show the installation of Hitec HS-55 micro servos in this
manual. These servos are both extremely small and powerful for their size. We use dual conversion receivers for our models because
they allow us to fly our airplanes with other modelers without fear of 3rd order interference, a common problem with single
conversion receivers. There are several very good dual conversion micro receivers on the market, such as the Hitec Electron 6 and the
FMA M5. If you decide to use the Hitec Electron 6 receiver, you can easily remove the plastic case, as we did, saving even more weight.
Of course, there are a number of other small receivers and servos on the market that can be substituted with equally good results. Select
components that have specifications similar to the HiTEC equipment listed. Watch the weight of components carefully as using
heavier than recommended equipment will have a very detrimental effect on the flight performance of your Sig Fokker D.VII.
Electronic Speed Control (ESC)... We show the installation and use of a MAXX Products MX-9105 ESC in this manual. Other ESC
units may be used, provided they have a minimum rating of 5 amps.
Flight Battery Pack:
The flight battery supplies power to both the radio system and the motor. We have had good success with two different battery packs:
a) 6-Cell 720 mAh NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable pack, in the "square" configuration.
b) 7-Cell 300 mAh NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable pack, in the "folded" configuration.
Both of these battery pack types will fly your Fokker D.VII well. The difference is that the 6-cell 720mah pack will fly the airplane a
little slower but with longer flight times - up to 13 minutes with throttle management. The smaller and lighter 7-cell 300maH pack will
fly your Fokker D.VII with greater power but for less flight time - about 6-7 minutes with throttle management.
