Sanyo Limit

from Randy Farrell email: csr@castlenet.com

The Sanyo Limit is a RTF polyhedral, t-tail, glass fuselage, mid-performance electric glider. In this particular version I run an Aveox F12LMR brushless motor, 14.5-10.5 Robbe carbon folder, 10-1000SCR Sanyo battery pack with an Aveox FLV controller. The wing area is approximately 490 sq.in. and 58 oz. total weight. I find the performance astonishing for a large 10 cell
glider. Climb rate is approximately 3400 fpm and about 40 mph vertical. The wing area provides for excellent thermal performance, even in marginal low level lift. This is an elevator-aileron ship and provides almost foolproof hands-off control when in level flight. The aileron setup provides for reflexing for airbrakes, but with the 14.5-10.5 prop a low rpm throttle setting slows the plane down significantly, resulting in slow speed landings with no detectable stall tendencies. This plane is a great aileron glider trainer in my opinion and with the previously mentioned power plant, makes for an

enjoyable fly-expert or novice. The pricing of the Sanyo Limit is another drawing card. It is available at under $250 dollars RTF less drivetrain. I give this plane four stars (****) for above average overall performance and low price.
Another version I run often is a 14- 1000cell scr pack and 12.5-10 Aeronaut carbon folder with no other changes.This ups the performance threshold to 90mph-level flight, 50mph vertical and approximately 4300fpm climb rate.
