SEFF is one of the largest Electric only flight festival in the world and it is held every year in Americus, GA. This year the event had about 230+ registered pilots and beautiful weather the entire event!
Our new US distributor Mikado USA decided to go to the event and promote the Scorpion line of Airplane Motors and Speed Controllers to the Airplane Crowd at this all Electric RC Flying event!
The “Main Attraction” from the Team Pilots was their new 100cc Equivalent Electric Giant Scale Airplanes.
Kyle Dahl had his H9 120cc Viking BiPlane on display using the SII-6530-180kv Motor, Tribunus 200A ESC’s and just 12s 5800mah Batteries.
Santiago Perez had his 105” EF Slick 540 there using the SII-6530-180kv Motor, Tribunus 130ESC’s and just 12s 5000 Batteries.
