Status: offline 		my guess would be (after scaling it from the pics on ebay) its a demon, with a 36" fuselage, and rnaf wing, and reshaped, rounded off tail feathers, and wing tips.

Status: offline 		So that's about 15 bucks of stuff and 65 bucks of time plus the rest in shipping. Not bad really if you don't have the time. Chris, didn't you buy that Talon from them or was that someone else?

Status: offline 		What is a Tyrant? ... A Demon? No .. not really. ... The FX-Tyrant was designed not after the Demon .. but believe it or not, ... the Debut. We were building the Debut's and we just wondered what one would do if we put the wing below. We tried using the orginal Debut wing except made out of 4-Mil., .. that didn't go over well. Then we tried the RNAF style wing, .. that flew better but still didn't acheive what we were after out of the plane. What finially worked and worked very well, is the 2-Mil. Semi Symetrical wing. The airfoil is not a Clark-Y airfoil. It does not have a flat bottom. The tail feathers and control surfaces are 4-Mil.
To get the plane to track straight down the run way, we found if you leave the landing gears mounted at the leading edge of the wing, and give it a little toe in on the wheels, this helps alot and the plane will track nicely. If I'm not mistaken, on the spadtothebone web site, under tips, it shows how to do that.
In regards to anyone wanting to know some info. on the FX-B.U.F.F. Stix, sorry .. no update yet. We have only built one prototype and we're trying to work out the kinks in it. At this time, they are not for sale ... we don't have any on ebay. I think what your seeing on ebay is the FX-Bandit and the FX-Big Bandit.
Thanks,
Mr. FX
