Default glow andrew jesky extra

this is a project i have been thinking about and working on for about 8 months. It my be tyranous but i thought it would be fun. It has a saito 56 hs 225 mg's in the tail and hs 82mg's in the rons with a hs55 for throtle. using a 800 mah 2 cell lipo for receiver batt. It is a bit heavy but i knew it would be from the start. Its right under 3.5 lbs with a full tank. It flys very well and will float for days. It has tons of power. No roll coupling in K.E. Harrior with no wing rock and transitions very well. Hovers like a dream. And the harrior rolls are nice and stable. Flight is really predictable so you know what to expect. Have not found ANY bad tendencies. After two hard flights i have not found any damage from stress or vibs in any of the formers and braces and have not found any broken glue joints It says something about the designer as to how great this thing flys this heavy so my hats off to Andrew Jesky For giving me a great platform for my glow conversion.

That is a great idea and I know it sounds sweet with that 4 stroke on teh front end.

Did you do this kit as an electirc 1st?

What size tank and prop R you running?

What does the bottom of the brid look like?
