While waiting for the larger 40mm power plant to fit in this one (above), I have built last few days much smaller, lighter one, to fit with the spare 30mm fan. I tried to keep the weight to minimum, 200 grams total ready take off weight with 3S/850 flight pack. After static test run it seem to have 1/1 power to weight ratio but only hope it will move fast enough to stay it in the air with its miniscule air frame of some 5dm/2 flying area only.

Smaller and lighter frame for the 30mm fan.

Taking up the new JFJ Studio "Stealthex"shape.

Power unit install.

Testing all sorts of speedos to get the best out of it.

Gradual build progress.

Nearing completion.
