RE: Speed Freaks Wanted- Over 150 Members already !
Hi, my name is Seth, and I am a Speed Plane enthusiast (addicts go to meetings). I have been a Lover of Speed Planes for several years, and with the help of the Revvers Brother-hood I hope to make my planes even FASTER !!! My wife even purchased my next speed plane (Matney Models QM-15 Rivets - [link=http://www.matneymodels.com/qm.html]http://www.matneymodels.com/qm.html[/link]).

My first real speed plane was the power squirrel. It is a clipped wing q-500 (lanier Predator), I cut 11 inches off each wing tip. It is a bunch of fun. Electric-delta & vicman saw its maiden flight. I posted a thread on it a while back ([link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_5016043/anchors_5016043/mpage_1/key_clipped%252Cwing%252Cq%252D500/anchor/tm.htm#5016043]clipped wing Q-500[/link]). I also have a Weston Magnum that is fairly quick. This year, really 2007, I started racing club-40 and 424 . . . three pole racing is VERY cool.
Thank you for considering my application to the brotherhood.

He has been getting help from a revver for some time now LOL
Seth has also been racing Texans for a few years. His Magnum and the Power Squirrel above are the only things around that hang with my Predator/Jett 50 combo.

Hey all,
I'm not exactly sure if this thread is only for gas & glow powered planes, or if electric speed freaks are also welcome to brag?
Personally I'm one of the growing number of 100% Electric Speed Freaks lurking around...
Best radar runs was over 130 mph with a modified and thinned + glassed Stryker powered by a Medusa 028-056-2800 with 5.5"x5.5" on a 5s Thunder Power Extreme through a CC80.
I'm sure there are even faster around.
Next to be built is a design of my own inspired from the old Saab J35.
Happy New Year

Why wouldn't a lekky be allowed? You guys turn some sick speed for sure! The guys in SoCal (airbike) were faster than any of the Revvers when I was out there. I seem to remember a little green plane doing like 2 bills, even the turbines out there were watching.

Are the stickers going to be available to all of us? They are really cool and I have a couple of planes that I would like them on.
How about a nice black or brown leather jacket with With Your number and Revvers brotherhood embroidered on the back!!!????? I would be proud to wear that to the club or different clubs that I like to got to. Pretty cool, huh?

My Screamin' Demon is finished. Not good weather for flying of any kind up here in N/W Ohio right now unless you have skis and a warm barn to get engines started. Here are some pictures. Details and more pics are in the "Something Fast" Delta build thread here on RCU.
