Default BVM Agressor II Build Thread

Just started on the Agressor II build.

I decided to do a build thread.

It is going to be converted for turbine power. First step was a new set of wings. Because I belive it is going to be about a pound heiver than a stock ducted fan (hopeing to come out at 13 pounds max weight) I added 4-1/2 inches to each wing. This is going to give me a wing span of 60 inches and wing area of 635 sq inches (if I did my math right). I can't use the wood supplied for the wing so off to the hobby shop to repalce the skins , leading and traialling edges.

If any one needs a set of wings and skins for the Agressor II let me know.

Most of the build will be stock BVM build with the exception of the inlets, turbine mount, and makeing up my own fuel tanks. I hope to be able to get a minimum of 60 oz's on board.

Power will be a full auto start Wren Mw54 14 pound thrust.

This is going to be a long build as the flying season is close here in Ohio so working on it may be a rainy day thing.

Here are a few pics of the start. You can see the difference in size of the stock wing compared to the new one.
