Default BIG F16C at Fentress

We flew the BIG F16C again last Sunday afternoon. The weather wasn't that great.
Eric Bauer owner of GPA Hobbies was at the control. Thanks to George DelMoral for letting us to fly at this great field. Will be back for more flights then shes ready for painting.

Hi Todd, Hey man nice to hear from you again. I heard the George is attending the Lake Whales event. Unfortunately I can't go. Lots of projects on the table. Don't worry you will have yours someday.

Hi Bella

Sure it's AMA legal. 40# dry + 7# fuel. So i would imagine if painted add another 2# maybe still comes our under 55# limit. And thanks for admiring my Viper.

Is the jet a scratch build? What powers it? What gear does it use?

That is awesome! I would love to see it fly, do you have any video?

Hi KFalcon,

I designed this jet. I am using AMT450 for power and scale gear. I will try to get some video next time.
thanks, Eddie Lozano
