We finally got a chance to fly the Razor 3D...3 times in fact.

It flies like it is on rails! I suspect that this is due to the strong pattern ship traits of the design. The geared Aveox power system really performed with the 14x10 prop. The fuselage design allowed us to perform solid knife edges that stayed level at full power with only partial rudder deflection. We could hover the plane also to the best of our abilities which is beginner-intermediate level. I recorded about 10 minute flights of heavy aerobatics using the Kokam 8AH Lithium pack which would make the lighter 1950mAh NiMH pack about 2.5 minutes.

The plane is an interesting blend of pattern ship design and 3D control surfaces. The ailerons were hot and so were the landings. The wingloading and thinner pattern-type airfoil made for quick landings when compared to my other 3D planes but the plane is very stabile and comes in straight as an arrow.

I'll post some flying pics soon and the video will be available when the review gets published. My video guy didn't show up so we litterally pulled a new DV camera from the box and I was learning how to use it as we walked to the field. Although it was stressfull at the time, it makes me laugh now. Gotta keep it fun!
