Hey Angel,
That thing skoots! Having flown the Magnum/West 50, I'd have to say the Rifle/Jett 50 has a slight edge.
Both motors are comparable, however, the Rifle's tapered leading edges seem to help with the "top end".
When these are kitted, or offered in ARC, they should be offered as a "combo". Either way, the Magnum has some COMPETITION!
I'm glad I installed my Jett 50 in mine now!
Great Job!
Gary

Yes, you maby recognice the color sheme?? Did you grind your sleeve by yourself, Angel? or did you send it to Dub? how much did you rise it? what gain did you get?
Razor; I might just test that MA 8x4
Unfortunately my clubmate crashed his Magnum-Weston
It would have been so fun racing with him, hope he'll repair it.

That's a clean plane, it looks great from every angle! It looks like the smallest size you could go and still be able to land it under control, with the weight of .40 sized equipment. How fast is it with the JETT .50 on a level pass?

RE: Rifle .50 (Video).................
I beleive you are right about the size, you also want room for the fuel.... I have a 6oz hopper in front of a 8 oz ,seems to wor well , the tx-timer is set on 6 minutes but seems to be extendable a minute or two.
But I will get a bladder 8oz and loose some weight also! both aft (lead) and from the hopper tank.
It's a very well visible size in the air, and still small in my car.
The speed, hmm no idea I'll pass on that. Angel? But my clubmates gives me hands a wide grins after flights

RE: Rifle .50 (Video).................
All it takes to get a speed clocking is 2 helpers, a stop watch, walkie-talkie radios, and a 315 foot long course to time for mph, or I guess you could go with 100 meters to get a decent straight and level run set up, for kph. It is amazing how consistant the timing crew can be, run after run, within a couple hundreths of a second from run to run.

Yes, I have checked my car-speedometer that way, took the time to travel between police heli markings (505 m here) on the road while travelling at constant speed .
a 60lx [X(] and V tail [>:]. That will moove!! I have one 60lx too! It's going into my "in a bag" Patriot that I will repair coming winter.
