Default RE: Phase 3 EF - 16

Here's mine with a few mod's. Took off the paper covering on wings and the did the whole jet in 1/2 oz glass with water based polyurethane it comes in at 20 oz without battery. Have 2-6 inch C/F rods in each wing going into the fuselage. Tail rods were covered with 1/8 lite ply and a rudder was added. I also have the wings setup for aileron's so if I want to add 2 more servo's down the road. Running the XF fan with the 5100 Kv 8XL motor on 4/S 2200 25C Air Thunder pack 40 amp ESC and 5/6v 3A UBEC. I am pulling about 30 amp's with 430+ watts and top speed is well over 100+mph. But now that I have about 50 or so flights on it it's getting too slow for me. I am thinking of re-powering it with a 480 fan with a 700 watt 2W-20 motor and 5/S pack. Damm!!!!! the need for speed has got me once more
Keep em flying
