Status: offline 		hey guys/gals, I got thru with my air devil ssc plane today and took a few pictures for you to critique. I dont have an all up weight yet, will have to wait for my flying buddy's scales for that. I started the new magnum up this afternoon for the first time and give it a couple of 'heat up the cylinder and let it cool back down ' 2 minute runs. I cut 3 and 1/2 inches off each end of the 71 inch wing. Now lets see if I can remember how to post pics ......

Oh, if you want to know where to get one or three of these planes, Contact Wayne Voyles, I think his call sign is waynebang here on RCU- a SUPER nice guy to deal with and he always has answered my questions in a quick manner.
Now lets see how good thing thing will get some streamers for me!

Status: offline 		Looks like the same basic concept, but with more wing area, a larger vertical tail, and a foam and something center pod rather than wood. All good-looking upgrades over the Battle Axe, IMHO. I haven't seen it fly, but I have seen some of the Axe-like planes from that part of the country, and they fly quite well.

Status: offline 		John,
As others have said the plane borrows heavily from the Battle Axe but that is not surprising. The Battle Axe, as kitted by Treneff RC, was designed by Chris Quinn. Chris and Wayne are good friends and exchange a lot of information. Wayne is also the designer of the Lanier Ripper and Slasher and also kitted a very nice 1/2A combat plane a couple of years ago. Wayne designed the Lanier SSC Warbirds - the Mustang and BF109. His planes fly very well.
