Definetly, after the contest was over, Mark bolted on these "George Hicks-endorsed" SFGs and took her up for a spin. Made an already awsome airplane even better. Flew incredibly slow with a low angle of attack in KE... BAD ASS!

Hi
as far as I know the equipment in Berndīs Raven XXL ist quite new. First time in competition at the German Acro Masters where he placed 1st followed by Seba. This big european event finished two weeks before the DLM.
Details of the motor, ESC, batteries and prop are not published yet. For further information please wait until the boys are back. Then I will talk to Bernd and try to post everything I found out.
