Exclusively available in the USA through Jet Central USA
This will be my build thread for the new Fei Bao Sport jet, the Dolphin S with the custom paint scheme commissioned by Eric Clap from Jet Central USA.
In this thread I will attempt to cover the building sequence and the design of internal mounting components that I made during the assembly of this great model. Jet Central USA will have the wood kits available for the custom installation components. Additionally I have been asked by the factory to write the manual.
I starting working on this model in the beginning of October and have been photo documenting my work as I proceeded. I have designed all of the internal mounting parts in AutoCAD. Drawings will include fuel tank mountings, two nose mounted battery boxes, UAT mounting, mounting plates for servo connections and a balancing fixture.
Templates will be included in the manual for those who wish to fabricate on their own.
I will start off with photos of the completed model, specification of the various parts and then start posting my build sequence. The plan is to have the Model at FL Jets in March 2015 for Flight demos.
