Oxai Zeque Glow Powered

A photo of 30% of the world's Zeque's at the recent Midwest Judging Seminar held in Chicago Saturday, May 12. The event was organized by NSRCA DVP Chris Moon and USA F3A "Team Representative" Mike Mueller. The photo shows Rusty and Doc's YS DZ 1.60 powered models with Chris's Axi powered model. We are all very pleased with the unusually fine flying models.

I finally have had the opportunity to fly airplane since my return from Phoenix. With a total of (9) personal flights I can say that this is a remarkable model.

See you at the NATS...

www.oxai-rc.com

has photos and the info.

They are imported and sold via Central Hobbies....Call Mandi and order it. She can take a deposit.

There are currently none in stock and they will likely be getting some around October time frame. The factory is working on building models and other new designs right now.

There is also a new version of the Beryll which is Glow powered being completed for W + R Matt as the Beryll now is Electric only. The new Glow Beryll is a whole new design fuse. This model should be done for the Worlds.

Then of course Quique's new model is now being built by Oxai and should be available in October to November time frame. Depending on how things go.

A few corrections to Troy's post above.

Onvaco USA, Inc. is the North American importer and distributor for all Oxai models. We operate under Oxai.US. (Note: Our web site is in dire need of updating. The only thing correct is the contact information.)

The models are available through Central Hobbies or directly from us. We drop ship for Central so they do not have any inventory there. The price is the same either way.

We have an order of models shipping on June 10th. We allow 4 weeks for freight and customs clearance so they should be here early July.

If you want something now is the time to call Certral or me and we can probably include it in this coming shipment.

Zeque Build Glow Powered

Three minutes before disaster...

The photos show the Zeque started for Round (6) and then the remaining photos show and are testament to the models strength and design excellence to SURVIVE the mid-air.

The model is surprisingly stiff and can be repaired quite easily...the paint is another story...

Bryan,

Fantastic offer my friend! The reconstruction will be very straight forward. The paint will be a challenge...except for you! I am considering selling as is, without the servos, pipe, motor but with all of the doo dah's for $2,250...

I wonder what Bryan considers a "nominal" fee?

Man, I can't believe you landed that thing....

I still can't believe how many mid-airs are reported from USA comps. The only one I've ever seen over here was years ago, and even then it involved a straying pylon racer at our Nats.
However do you lot manage so many???

Jez Berusty, that's just sick. Real bad news... I'm sorry for you.
Still, look on the bright side, you have several other models to choose from.
That glow powered Beryll looks simply stunning.
Even I have to admit that the once, great, Zeque was starting to look a little long in the tooth.
OK, so it's only a few months old... but things are moving fast now that the "commercializers" have moved into F3A.
Come on, buy another. H#ll, buy 2!
Your post here on RCU are the closest most of us WANT to get to these exotic, sallary eaters.
They're very much appriciated.
As is your wallet I'm sure.

I scribed a round of FAI on Saturday at the D4/D5 shootout and so had a chance to see this plane up close and personal. Very nice. After watching and reading this thread I felt like I was in the presence of a celebrity (the plane I mean ). It's a shame it got scratched.

Zeque Build Glow Powered

Bla, Bla, Bla very kind words...

Bla, Bla, Bla...thank you for your comments! The model is very repairable. I have another brand-new one arriving in the AM via FED EX Freight...not what I want to be doing...I have had a dream to fly in the USA F3A Team Trials for over 30 years. I will finish last, will probably not even make the semi-finals with (40) F3A NATS contestants as of today...and I am thrilled to be making the effort to improve every week...thanks to a collection of patient, talented and generous pals including Dave Guerin, Troy Newman and Bill Cunningham.

Here are more photos of my model. I cannot stress how many people, who have seen the damage, marvel at the fact that it survived.
