RE: BN Models Impulse. OFF THE SCALE!
Some close-ups. Looks just fine.
The odd thing is that the part I made felt lighter than the part I removed!
I didn't weight the fiber glass piece but in the hand you could almost feel nothing.
It's stuck in with a little epoxy and a great deal of ballons.

What happens when you install your engine mount using the holes pre drilled by a Turkish engineer?
Everything lines up very nicely indeed.

RE: BN Models Impulse. OFF THE SCALE!
Keep the post coming... well thanks but thats about it, there isn't really anything else to tell you. All thats left to do now is film the wings and spray some colors on the body... screw in the servos and go flying.
So far, having this airplane has been a very pleasant experience. The quality, fit and finish are simply 5 star. The hardware package is again top notch, with real quality/pro stuff. The only parts I will not be using are the control horns... I just like MK, period.
The question that remains to be answered is whether BN can keep up this amazing, handcrafted quality when it starts mass producing for the big US market?

RE: BN Models Impulse. OFF THE SCALE!
Yes sure, but don't hold your breath... I'm a wizard with film and a heat gun but spray painting isn't my thing at all. Don't even own any equipment! This is something I'll have to rectify before painting commences. Last time I asked somebody to spray an airplane for me they added over 800g!!!! It was a hell of a finish though! Heavy, but you sure could see your face in it.

RE: BN Models Impulse. OFF THE SCALE!
I am thinking of getting an impulse but have not seen any flight reports yet. Has anyone flown their impulse? How do they compare with the other top of the line planes out there? Anyone use the impilse in the worlds? Any and all info would be greatly appreciated.
