Default RE: DDust

Maiden flight was a scream...Do to CG considerations I swapped out the webra for a 40 rossi with ultrathrust race version muffler.....Speeds were around 130, 140 mph...She really blistered the sky....I might have 20 dollars in the airframe....This thing flies like a OUTLAW....Landings were a tad fast but, it's built like a tank and handled it easily....I ran 9x7apc and snapped it on one of my landings as it didn't get out of the way....When I swapped it with a 9x6apc the plane got faster....I mean really faster....Motor started screaming.....Launches were a breeze.... If you want to have some fun and not spend much I highly recommend one of these....Materials $20..... 3 servo's $36...40 rossi $130.....fuel tank $5......Battery pack $20...... RX $50......Some glue and linkages $10...$271 total... Go 130 mph or faster.....Can't beat it..... Gofastz
