I'm doing a 40" ws 21" root 18" tip. I am useing the same dimensions I used for my SPA3DEFI. I have'nt figured out what to do with the fuse yet. I will prolly use blue foam and balsa, then hog it out with the hole saw. I am going to use my Sato .40 and mini radio gear. I am shooting for around 3.25 lb. Hopefully I can get some work done on it this weekend.

So............What was the name you gave the plane???

Guys,
Been too busy at work this week to get the video out.
So here's some still's from the video until I get it finished.



Sorry for the quality, doesnt export still's that well.
The video should be ready sometime over the weekend.

Remeber, this was the first day I flew the badboy. It had about 3 flights on it when the video was taken. Flew fantastic straight out of the box.

The stupid mouse my wife bought killed my post again.............

She KEs like nobody's buisness.......no corrections, I did my first KE circut ever today. I ca'nt do a KE loop yet...........Wednesday I will get though.

It hovers great, If you force TR, It seems to be easier to hover (giroscopic affect) It is so fragile, I am extremely afraid to get low with it.

It is grossly overpowered with the YS .63 (Shawn If you send me another one, I will put the Sato .40 in it with HS 255 MG servos and it should get to 3lb flat)

KE is effortless...........Just stear with a little rudder and that's it!

I do'nt have the skills that alot of other 3D pilots have, but this plane makes up for that. I do'nt own a foamy, but From the vids I have seen, This plane flys just like that. Everything happenes in slo-motion!!!!!!!

Shaun, you were right...... It does'nt need this much engine

Guys,
The video is up. You will need the latest divx codec from www.divx.com to watch it.

Click on the link to download it. Remeber this was about flight 3 and Ive never flown a profile fun fly before. Im very happy with it, hovers on about 1/4tr throttle.

I am thinking of getting the "Bad Boy" and was wanting to watch the video. I am unable to download it because it says it can not connect with the server or it can not be found. Is the video still uploaded to the server?

Hi Zippi

The movie is working just right click with the mouse on the link and pick "save traget as"

The only thing is that I had to download this software to watch it DivX (Trent put the link in there so its not a problem)

I hate downloading un-known softwares but this video is definetly worth it

Trent - great flight ! doesn't look like first flight at all

Beware of the DIVX download FREE with Adware. Don't download that version. You'll be caught in ad hell. Make sure you dload this version. Great video btw. Is this the first or second version flying?

http://download.divx.com/divx/DivX511.exe

What do you mean "caught in ad hell" ?? I didn't have any problems with it so far ?

Any chance to get this bird from you soon ?
