Looks like you have a motor just say the word and YES! I can have it in my carry on bag...The Rappy NO problem except for the fact you fly that mode 4 shiz.. That could be a problem for me on test flight.. I'm sure we will get you flying NO problem..

I'm interested in your flight reports.

Are you going to do a "normal" build or one of your super lightweight builds?

Cans, pipes, or muffs?

You plan on it being a 3d machine or an IMAC machine?

Just the other day I was telling somebody at the field I wish someone would make a 100cc wood version of this plane.

Go spend some money!!

Building this one pretty stock, as in I don't plan to take any wood out and will probably use hardwood dowels if standoffs are needed(I usually use balsa). This is, after all, a prototype, so we need an honest weight for it. However, I will be doing only one rudder servo, A123 1100's, and no power systems or anything like that(except a Smart-fly ignition kill), and a fiji water bottle fuel tank.
Gonna be stock muffs, although the fuse is cannister-ready pipes would be pretty easy, too.
This will be set up for probably both 3D and precision, as I think it will excel at both.
Gotta go to DA tomorrow, anyway, so I may leave with a big white box

Hey Nick, why do you think the wing span is only 101? Does they plane in general seem bigger or smaller than your 260?

I really hope it flys good, It would be nice to be able to support Bill without needing a flipn hangar in my backyard. Hopefully he enters the 100cc market and does an edge too.

The scale sceme is sweet, and the planes footprint really has the "so ugly its cool" thing goin!

Later
