HK EPO Parjet, ARF
A small review of this, what I think is a Great Little flyer. If you read the reviews on the HK Forums there is probably a 60/40 Balance of good and bad. I thought I'd give it a shot. It came in a small box and everything was there. Even came with glue .
So it was time to glue the wings to the main fuse and fins on. Instead of using the glue provided I used 5 min epoxy. The glue provided probably does a good job as well. I used a tooth pic to put some holes along the foam joins so the glue would bind a bit better. Since the servos where already fitted I checked them just to make sure they were in tight. No problem there. Next was the engine mount. Seemed fragile to me, so I opted to use only the round disc mount of the supplied engine mount and glue it to the rear of the wing as in the pics. I put in 2-3 degrees down thrust and supported it top and bottom with some 5mm cellfoam 88 for some strength ( not in the pics )and also the bottom one is used a a skid.
I used the prop provided and prop saver. The prop is not a perfect fit on the prop saver. Dont forget since its a pusher the prop faces forward ( eg Numbers on the prop facing towards the front. The grub screws are tiny on the metal engine mount and prop saver. Their around a 1mm allan key in size. A real PIA. I added some stickers and hooked up the electronics. I adjusted the elevons with a little bit up for the first flight. A little not to much. So it was time to give it ago.
I used the supplied esc and found it works well with 2 and 3 cell Batts. No problems as yet. It has an annoying beep every 10 -20 seconds when being used. Maybe to tell the pilot its ready to go.
I tried it with a 2 cell and Yeh it flew but not with sparkling performance. Mmmmmmm.... 3 cell time. I used a 3 cell 500mah batt first up and it really picked up its game. I now use 3 cell 800mah and get a 10 min flight with a bit to spare in juice.
For its size the combination of the supplied esc /motor and 3 cell Batt, I think it gives it good performance. As for the CG, I used the finger holes underneath the wing and went from there. After trimming during its maiden I find this little park jet a joy to fly. Others on the HK Forums maybe think differently but I suppose " What ever Rocks your Boat "
Here's a couple of pics and some flight video.
Thanks for the flight report, Boxhead. This plane scoots along fast and smooth.

Hi Box, been flying mine for a while. I used a slightly different motor and esc on 2's 800mah batteries and it gets along. Haven't been game to try it on a 3's battery. The little engine mount it came with kept comming apart on landing. My motor is mounted a lot lower than the original and it doesn't lift so much under full throttle. Might try mounting the motor the way you did yours. Hard to find little jets that are light enough to fly on 2's batteries. If you come across anything small and light enough please let me know.
Check out the weight and size of this http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=14553
Hey Rudes, how they hang'in . Well I hope. Mate this EPO parkjet is a good little ship. Got to agree about the original engine mount. Definately not in the ball park. Took mine out yesterday for a fly. On 3 cell handled the wind with ease. Weather here at the moment sucks. Rain/Wind. You get the idea. I'll put up another picy of the engine mounting shortly. Just shows the mount support at the top. The original motor and esc that comes with the EPO Jet can handle 3 cell just fine.
That AT6 is a good looking aircraft. Weight looks good as well. It also has good write ups. Mmmmmmm...... thinking. I've got a HK DR1 Triplane coming my way from Santa. Bet Ya it will be a handful
Re-did the engine mount . Its the same but stronger ( Luv that Hot glue ). Also changed the prop fitment ( due to the prop letting go with the original prop holder ). bullet proof Now....

Thanks for the pic's Box. Hate to be annoying but a while ago you sent me a link to where ya buy your 40mm EDF's any chance of it again. With a bit more experience in EDF's I wouldn't mind trying one on this little jet. The weight of this little jet comes in pretty close to try a 40mm on a 3's battery. I turned the servo throws down a bit more today and this little jet is a pleasure to fly.
I use this motor http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=5432
This esc http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=4204
With a GWS 5 x 4.3 huge flight time.
Rudes, this is where I got my original 40mm EDF but they have no motor.
HK have them with motor for about $20. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=10574
If your going to EDF the EPO Parkjet watch your weight. Good luck with it.
Thanks for the review Boxhead! I decided to buy one and it should be here sometime this week. I ordered another motor, ESC and prop with it just in case the stock setup was insufficient. From what you guys are saying, sounds like I will have to redo or reinforce the motor mount also.
Regarding this comment below, with EDFs, don't expect the plane to float as well. EDFs require you keep up your speed.
Review of HK EPO ParkJet
Flite Test did a nice video review of the jet here. They included a cool upgrade option too, only problem with the motor upgrade they suggest is that it's an inrunner and will probably be harder to mount directly to the back of plane than an outrunner. I ordered the inrunner they suggested (Turnigy HXT2835 2700kV Inrunner), but I wish now I had ordered an outrunner.
Upgrade options for HK EPO ParkJet
Here are the upgrade options I'm going to try with the HK EPO ParkJet:
Motor: HXT 2835 (380S) 2700kv Brushless Inrunner $18.31
ESC: H-KING 35A Fixed Wing Brushless Speed Controller $11.95
Extra Props: TGS Sport 4.75x4.75E Precision propeller $1.43 and TGS Sport 5x5E Precision propeller $1.43
Receiver: DSM2 Compatible Parkflyer 2.4Ghz Receiver $7.95
Awsome little plane.I changed the servo's to Corona 1.8 kg metal gear,added 1mm carbon rod on the control surfaces to avois flex in high speed turns and hooked her up with a 4.75x4.75 apc prop.chucked the 10A esc and added a 25A.running on 1300mah 3s lipo.lots of fun,but can surely catch you out if you don't pay attention
this is sooooo much fun and the quality isn't bad at all. here's a pic of what she looks like

Hey guys,
Keep this plane in mind. I'm in the process of setting up a competition for this plane with hobbyking. I'd really like to see what people are doing with this platform. Stay tuned on the YouTube channel "hobbykinglive" and our twitter for more details. Expect some serious prizes too!
so I've got a bunch of 3s 1300 ,and I've been eying this plane. how does it fly with a 1300s? it seems like like it would be a bit heavy.
Antihero.I fly mine with 1300mah 3s.and it goes!mine is quicker than most of the edf foam jets at my club.we clocked her at 120km/h..... I'm running with the motor provided and upgraded the esc to 25A.she flies awsome.very stable an lands like a gentel lady glider.she glides really well.look its not a beginners plane at all,but so much fun.my verticle is really good aswell.I bail way before she runs out of legs,but that's only because I cvant see anymorereally I would advise to get one.if u do,do not use the epoxy provided.its yellow an looks crap.I inserted 3mm carbon rod about 1/3 behind the leading edge aswell for some extra strenth in the wings.I also added 1.5mm carbon rods an the controle surfaces to prevent flex during high speed turns.GET YOURSELF one if u do oost it so we can see what it lloks like.I will post some more upclose pics. Of the changes I made

This review is from: TP-LINK TL-WDR3600 Dual Band Wireless N600 Router, Gigabit, 2.4GHz 300Mbps+5GHz 300Mbps, 2 USB port, IP QoS, Wireless On/Off Switch
Pros: First off, I should say that the first thing I did with this out of the box was to put DD-WRT on it, so I CANNOT speak to the quality of the factory firmware.
I had done my research before buying this model, and was reasonably confident that there was good compatibility. I found some posts on the DD-WRT forums suggesting build 23919, and it's worked perfectly.
+ Throughput is great
+ Connection is solid
+ I even got my USB printer hooked up as a network printer without too much trouble (and it didn't require any SSH or Telnet hacking either!).
+ Gigabit Ethernet ports
+ Got it on sale for only $40
Cons: - Can only host a USB external HDD at speeds of about 5 MB/s. I think this is a result of the weak single-core processor, but regardless, it's too slow to be used for a media NAS. Not enough to knock an egg off, since it wasn't one of the reasons I went with this model. If you just wanted to save documents or small stuff, it'd be fine doubling as a NAS.
- The model with 450 Mbit 5GHz radio just went on sale for only $5 more than I paid for this. Oh well.
Other Thoughts: DD-WRT makes this thing a beast. Make sure you do the factory-to-DD-WRT flash FIRST, and you'll have no issues.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: DELL Laptop Inspiron i15RM-5127sLV Intel Core i5 4200U (1.60 GHz) 8 GB Memory 1 TB HDD Intel HD Graphics 4400 15.6" Windows 8.1 64-Bit
Pros: Got this laptop for my fiancée to replace her dying 15" HP laptop. Newegg was having a sale on this one, so I decided to take a gamble and pull the trigger, despite there being no reviews. I'm pleased with the result.
+ Attractive chassis, very nice silver color
+ Great webcam--smooth video and pretty good in low light
+ Fast, low-TDP i5 CPU makes for great performance without the battery drain of a 35-watt part of previous generations
+ 8 GB of DDR3L 1600 RAM is plenty for a laptop, and lends a lot to a crisp, snappy user experience
+ Battery life is really good, about 8 hours of light use (web browsing + spotify) on a full charge, thanks to the aforementioned CPU
+ 10-key number pad is really nice. In my mind, there's no excuse for having a 15" or larger chassis and NOT having a numpad.
+ Dedicated L/R touchpad buttons, especially since I dislike the tap-to-click functionality of most touchpads... I always seem to be clicking when I don't mean to with them.
+ Has the option to switch the default behavior of the F1-F12 keys and their alternate FN key invoked functions in the BIOS. This means tapping those keys performs their media functions, and holding the FN key triggers F1-F12 behavior. Nice to have the choice.
Cons: I like this model a lot, hence the 5-egg rating. But no product is without flaws, so here are the ones that I found:
- Does not come with any media discs. It's exceedingly rare for a manufacturer to include Windows media, but I was irked that it didn't even come with a driver disc. You can easily get the drivers on Dell's site, though.
- Dedicated L/R touchpad buttons have a little more of a hard click than I would prefer. Definitely a nitpick, but something I noticed.
- Keyboard is not backlit. Can't drop an egg for that, since it's usually only on more expensive notebooks and ultrabooks.
- 1366x768 resolution. Why this became standard, I struggle to understand. I'm glad to see more and more computers (though not this one) with higher resolutions, because I'm tired of seeing every single 5" phone on the market having a higher resolution than most laptop screens. It makes no darn sense to me. Would have been nice to see this one have 1600x900 or thereabouts.
Other Thoughts: The first thing I did was swap in a Samsung Evo SSD with Windows 7 on it. After I disabled Secure Boot in the BIOS, it runs just fine. Windows 7 did not readily have the drivers for either network interface, so I had to grab them from Dell's site with another computer and bring them over on a flash drive. After that, I downloaded the rest of the missing drivers--mostly for chipset and USB 3 stuff. I was able to get all the drivers I needed for Windows 7 x64 from Dell, even though the model comes with Win8 installed.
I wanted to include details about this item that were either missing or incorrect on Newegg's full details page for this item:
> Battery is 6-cell, NOT a 4-cell as the description indicates.
> Laptop weight is right around 5 lbs. As I said, I swapped out the HDD for a slightly lighter SSD right away, so the out-of-box weight is probably about 5.1 lbs.
This review is from: DELL Laptop Inspiron i15RM-5127sLV Intel Core i5 4200U (1.60 GHz) 8 GB Memory 1 TB HDD Intel HD Graphics 4400 15.6" Windows 8.1 64-Bit
Pros: Laptop is exactly what my fiancee wanted. She needed a new computer, so I took a risk and bought this one with no prior reviews because it had everything she wanted:
- Silver Color
- Optical Drive
- 10-key numpad
- Built-in webcam (but everything has one of those)
- Touchpad with dedicated L/R click buttons
Full disclosure: I didn't even bother to boot up the default Windows 8 install. I had gotten and installed a Samsung Evo SSD in her prior machine, so I swapped it over into this one (and reactivated the existing Windows 7 x64), disabled Secure Boot in the BIOS, and was off to the races. I had to install a bunch of drivers that Windows 7 couldn't get automatically. These included both network interfaces, so I had to grab those from Dell's site and bring them over on a flash drive.
The machine, now with SSD and W7, runs very nicely. Battery life seems really solid. It reported about 7.5 hours left after half an hour of light usage (web browsing with spotify running, then a little bit of Netflix). The low TDP i5 makes a big difference when it comes to getting awesome battery. Most laptop makers seem to feel that having a processor and GPU that take less electricity is a great excuse to put a tiny 4-cell battery in, meaning you still only get ~5 hours on it even with the reduced power consumption. The thicker chassis on this one allows for a nice 6-cell, and therefore a healthier battery life.
Overall, great machine for someone looking for a nice 15-inch laptop, as long as it's important to you to get an optical drive. If you don't care about not having optical, there are probably thinner, lighter models available.
Cons: Would have been nice if it had a backlit keyboard, but usually that only goes to the premium batch of models. Can't knock it an egg for that, since this model instead seems to sit right at the top of the budget range of laptops.
No issues, but incomplete and incorrect information on Newegg's site make it hard to judge this one before buying. My own corrections are below.
Other Thoughts: Battery is listed on Newegg as a 4-cell. WRONG. It is a 6-cell. I neglected to look at how many watt-hours, but the label on it clearly states that it is a 6-cell battery.
Weight is not listed on the specs. The laptop by itself is right around 5 lbs. The exact figure is skewed because I didn't weigh it before I swapped out the HDD for the SSD, which is slightly lighter.
The memory is DDR3L (low-voltage), and comes in the form of 2x4GB dimms.
A note to a prospective buyer: if you're considering grabbing this model, check into the Ivy Bridge version. The specs are VERY similar, and it's probably a decent bit cheaper than this one. I ultimately decided to invest and get the marginally better CPU and GPU, and slightly lower power consumption of the Haswell.

We arrived at the Vancouver airport from Phoenix on time and supposedly with plenty of time for the 5 PM sailing. The HAL greeter was there looking for us at baggage pick up and was rushing us along. We discovered that the Captain had hoped to leave port early and they were waiting on us and one other couple from the US. We hurried through the airport, met the other couple on the bus and off the 4 of us went. As it turned out, we didn't leave until 5:30 so actually were at the ship in plenty of time though it is a good lesson to try to get there early. Unfortunately, we took the earliest flight of the day from Phoenix as it was.
Yes it did rain almost every day. Yes we had 92 mph winds one night (that ship pitched, rolled, and yawed). In retrospect it is a bit unsettling to remember the Captain mentioning that he felt like George Clooney the night that the barometer dropped further and faster than he had ever seen at sea. It's made a great conversation piece since our return.
Our bad luck started in Juneau where we were told that our excursion to Taku Lodge was cancelled by, I assume, bad flying or landing conditions. Since that was the only excursion that we had planned on, it did put us in a bind, but I do understand and appreciate safety first. We quickly dashed off the ship and decided to take one of the impromptu whale watching trips and as it turned out, we actually did see whales which seemed to be almost playing with our boat. The weather was fairly miserable but you know, most were having fun. A word of advice here, absolutely do use the rest room before you depart. It was way too rocky and bouncy to do so while out on the water. At least in the small boat we were on. But you know, we were down on the water and could actual feel part of the action.
Skagway was mostly for shopping, in the rain. Apparently we were supposed to be the only ship in port but the bad weather had forced three other ships to come to Skagway so it was definitely a hustling time. I am sure glad that we didn't take the eagle watching excursion because those people were stuck in Hanes when it was decided that it would have been unsafe for the ferry to return to Skagway. The plan was for us to wait in port until the next morning when it was anticipated that the ferry could run and get the people back. Best laid plans, that didn't happen. The weather worsened and a Princess ship that was sheltering us decided to leave that night so we had no choice but to follow her out to sea since would no longer have shelter from the winds.
During the night, things got worse and unfortunately we didn't stop in Ketchikan. (Wonder what they ever did with those 6 passengers that were stuck in Hanes and missed the Skagway departure?) And to be "good neighbors of the sea" we only went part way into Tracy Arm so missed the glacier.
But you know, I had a great time. Netted $175 from the casino. Ate a year's worth of salmon. Enjoyed dinner two times at the Pinnacle (their charge restaurant) where they truly treated us like valued guests. The staff and maitre'd kept plying us with extra appetizers and desserts and it served one of the best steaks I've had. Both times I had to waddle out of there. It was disappointing to miss out on some of the itinerary but that can happen this late in the season.
The crew went out of their way to be accommodating under the circumstances. Everyone was cheerful and friendly and I don't think because they had to be.
Would I go again, absolutely. And this time, now that I know where the gym is, I'll not feel so bad about the second chocolate volcano cake.
