Looks very sleek and smooth. Nice transition from the "cockpit" area to the canopy deck.

I'm glad you guys like it. If gives it a slim racing look to airplane. I'm not a fan of big bubble canopies.

Can't wait to see the rudder line. Looks like some people have an "edge" style rudder shape and some really understate the rudder. Being a person that flies with my rudder a lot, I like a lot of rudder surface on my planes. Here is a good one: http://jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=5817515&nseq=2

Is this the same plane with a different canopy?

It's that model plane. That is a velox, but mine doesn't look just like that. That's a old Aerotech velox.

Rob,

Let me know on the parts list for the Velox so I can start sending funds your way. I am still undecided about the engine choice even though you said DA-170. 200?


Regards,

Perry

Let me know about the 200 if that's what your going with. I change the motor box sides to a shorter motor box to accommodate the longer engine.

That's just pfoil doing another drive by post trying to bash a new plane design by suggesting it is a knockoff while ignoring the obvious differences(such as the higher wing placement and extensive laser cut parts)

I distinctly recall a similar post on the Aerotech Brian Luckett extra thread...suggesting it was a dalton mel copy.

It is clear that Rob has put a lot of work into this design and it is clearly his own.
