Default RE: Chip Hyde's Vision 3D

Apart from my iso-mount, it's pretty standard. 1800 NiMh ign pack - less weight than a 4-cell nicad. I used a Li-ion 2500 mAh for the RX. One servo per wing, 8611's. two servos for the elevator, 8411's. One servo for the rudder, 8611. A 3421 on the throttle. I did not use the belly pan. I just covered it over - should be lighter.

The slimline might be heavier than a header and pipe but I doubt it. I used carbon landing gear and a carbon wing tube.

As I said, 16 lb 6 oz is better than what I had before in the DV. The DV was awesome in the vertical so I can hardly wait to fly this puppy. You guys with 15 lb will be in another heaven.....
