New Fancy Foam MX2 !!!

[pitviper51]

cool factor is always a plus, roll rate help.. with the size of those control surfaces hahaha! I did notice the tilt on the spades inthe videos i have seen. I cant wait to get mine built the wait is driving me nuts,, and i dont know if the motor shipped yet BAHHHH... I hope its a case of aeromodel not sending ship notices hahah.

1. They look cool!
2. They counterbalance the ailerons and help the roll rate.
3. They act as small side force generators and stablize several areas of flight, especially knifeedge.
4. They do help the plane fly a little bit more level in upright flight
5. Did I mention they look cool?

sounds good to me!, got my props today haha the last thing i ordered.. stevens aeromodel is always fast. I am glad I ordered 15 props, these things feel super easy to break. more waiting begins. Since I am off today and the plane is going to work, I may see if it comes in there, but will see.

You had given me an idea on one as well!!!! Get an all white one, and get it to a guy I know who paints..... And just tell him Orange and Black!!!

[hpapilot]

Oh jeez, these should be entertaining... whatever you guys do, post pictures!! I wanna see them!

[Bunky F. Knuckle]

I gotta buy one first!!!! Before I can get this one going, I need to build my Osiris..........

What is the difference on the Diamond D47 and the D47S....I know it says the S is faster, is there any difference on the weight ? Anyone know anything about the D47S ?

Just went and got lumber and a door to start framing up a paint booth in the basement, Bren will be going at it before to long

Danny, The D47S is a D47 with a different gearset. The S version has about 30% more speed and 30% less torque. Great for pattern planes, not so good for freestyle due to their very low torque...

Thanks RJ....couldnt find any specs for the S version

Yeah, they're a little sketchy and production seems to be a bit inconsistent on the S versions.

Talked to Brendan the other night, he'll have a plane or two from me when he's ready to paint...
