My Feedback: (1)
I just went thru most of this thread, and I have to say, you, SIR, are a master builder! WOW, is all I can say. i come from the IMAC world, and this is my 1st Pattern airplane, which is a Ca models Proteus. And I am trying to put it together, but by looking at your build thread, it has given me great ideas. WOW, is all I can say, you do incredible work! thank you for posting this information.

Hi Claude,
RC Composit is working on a composite version of the Vortex, and i am working on designing the internal structure, jigs and fixtures, templates for the paintscheme, etc. that will help with the quick production of the model.
The molds are completed and we will probably have the first test model finished in a short while.
I will start a new thread on the composite model when it is ready for production.

RC Composit does a great job on the Vortex, the quality is great and weights are very good. The composite wings are very light (338g fully painted), which is almost as light as my balsa wings will be once covered with film.
I received my test plane 2 weeks ago and started working on it slowly. I have very little time left for building these days and the space is limited for building in the new apartment, but i try to progress a little every day.

Hello everyone, our cooperation with ADG aero failed, it deceives the buyers, it takes money from the buyers but it does not pay me for the production, therefore it will not work rc-composit with ADG aero. We are looking for a new partner to represent us in the USA

CK Aero??? https://www.ckaero.net/
Such small messages left a lot to the imagination and is easy to start even a war when unfairness is discussed .

Hi, the finish of this white version is really good, so much so that I decided to just spray the trim colours, and not spray a white base coat, so saving weight by not doing this.
Alignment of the wings and tail were good, but you have to fit the incidence adjusters yourself.
There are not many accessories included, but a motor mount is included, but no wheels or linkages
The UC legs are not pre drilled, so a template has to be made up to allign with the blind nuts in the mount.
There is a paper tube fitted for the elevator servo wires
In all I am quite impressed with it
Buying the white version saves you around 700 dollars, so worth considering.
Thanks
