Hi Cliff,
I put two HS80's in my 9 year old son's S1-26, but he soon stripped a servo.
Thought it was a fluke. Replaced the gears and he stripped one again. Added
servo savers. Thought this would fix the problem. He flew two weekends
before stripping a servo. Swapped out the servos for two HS80-MG's, kept the
servo savers on and he hasn't stripped a servo since (all summer).
The DAW S1-26 along with the Hitech IIs radio has been a lightweight, but
durable combination, It is also inexpensive enough that Dad doesn't have to
worry about it. We put a hook on it and launch it with a hi-start; it
thermals pretty well. We have also thermaled it from a hand toss although
takes a pretty well developed thermal which is unusual at our high altitude.
The plane excels on the slope and is great light wind plane that I like to
use to test the wind or to fly at small slopes and mountian sights with
tight, rocky landing areas.
Your on the right track.
