Thanks Razor, I just don't have any to post. Will have to get pics of future models. I have been helping a friend with his Magnum. Thats a pretty quick little plane.
"Hi, my name is Matt Fulks, and I am a Speed Plane Addict. I have been a Lover of Speed Planes for 5 years, and with the help of the Revvers Brotherhood I hope to make my planes even FASTER !!! Don't let my wife see this....I promised her I would "tame it down a bit". : ( heh heh heh )
This is my Diamond Dust powered my a Jett FIRE .50. I've had this plane for over three years and still haven't crashed it! It is the fastest plane around here! At the moment, I'm working on an original design for my Jett FIRE .50. Should be unique looking and hopefully very fast! Matt
Matt....nice Dust, Dude....#49 is yours.
Rev on, my Brothers....

Hello to the brotherhood!
Sorry I have not been responding, I will try to get some pics of the rocket/patriot project and post them.
But as far as the Deullist question, I like the weston UK (webra) 50's (comes with the Magnum) , that is what I am planning to put in my deullist. I am just waiting to paint and the rest is fun.
Do not put a 4 stroke in the deullist, it would be offensive to the brotherhood....
Hello Look, I see you have also a very nice fast Stinger 21. The Rossi's are really fast, I get 31000rpm with an 6,5X6,5 and 20% Nitro. This little fast airplanes are very nice flying. Very good workmanship.

I saw the speed stated in the list of your wonderer zipping along at 187 MPH.
I almost feel over on my chair.
I do not want to be rude, but, that speed is in the class of Q40 pylon speed.
There is no way the airframe will support those speeds.
I have been building and modifying wonderer's for years.
The boxy airframe, exposed engine and straight wing will not allow you to fly that fast.
The wonderer will blow apart about 125-140mph stock.
I have modified over 10 units using SX32 with 7.8-6 props, 30% nitro and ultra thrust muffler turing 19,960 on the ground and can't acheive more than 140mph with heavily modified frame. You can only acheive 50 more MPH with double the hp.
I have even ran Rossi 2.2hp .21engine with 30kRPM prop and can't break 150mph with modified frame.
Please reframe from bull and tales.
I would like to enter your plane in the next Q40 formula or Q500 Race.

Hi guys my name is Jim, I'm just getting started in the speed plane area but I want in! Just test flew my H9 Aresti with new Rossi 53 with mini-pipe, APC 11x5 @ 15,600 (still rich). Don't know speed but it was FUN!
I have a Patriot on order, also have a Direct Connection Tsunami kit to build, planning to build it as a speed model if you guys will walk me thru it. No pictures at this point; hope that's not a show stopper.
Don't let my wife or girl friends see this; I'm too old for the hassle!!
