[ampEater]

I am looking at options for a a new Pattern ship for the nats. I can't afford new but would like to know if anyone has a second hand one they could be tempted to part with.

Awesome plane!!

[ampEater]

That really is an awesome plane there mate!! It is with much regret that I will have to decline that offer as it is a bit out of my price range Cheers though. Hope the sale goes well

A bit more info for people about what I am after; I'm only in need of the airframe as I have all the gear i need for it, and also have a Nue Motor and 10cell lithium on the way for it So it is going to be electric.

I can only really spend $700NZD maximum and am not prepared to go past that.

I would settle for just a fuselage as I have some wings and a a couple of sets of tailplanes here (don't ask lol ) . I would also settle for an airframe that needed a bit of TLC to get up to flying condition. I also have two sets of carbon U/C, 2 wing tubes, a Matrix rear end lol and other bits and bobs. So if it means I can get something cheaper by the seller not including them I wouldn't complain

I was planning to get a new Matrix fuse of Ewan Galloway, but I not sure if he'll have time to get this done for me or not. Hard to get hold of him too (been trying for 2 months!!)

I would also prefer a modern(ish) design like the Matrix etc... As I have flown older designs and they just don't do it for me (I'm picky i know lol )

I am getting a little Dejavu reading this thread, I seem to recall a young man from CHCH looking for a new pattern plane about this time last year for the nats?.

[ampEater]

Haha it's sad ae

Just need to show some restraint and discipline in the way I go about things and also in the way I fly. This way things may last me a bit longer

Oh well being an engineer now might help in this too, doing things properly and such, having an eye for wrong threads into wrong clevices etc

hey Alex, Jeremy from CMAC here,

i have just got my 2nd EF Extra (RIP the first)
i was wondering if there are mods you would recomend over stock,
i will just be running the stock, Torque motor and airboss ESC, HS65's all round (they all apear to have survived the wreck).
i was running my last one with Hyperion 3s 2500's, but i might try one of those batteries that you were using. what are they and how much? did you say your mate imports them?

catch you out at cmac in a week for the imac/pattern?

I can't really think of any mods other than carbon capping the elevator joiner.

Yup I can hook you up with some 2000mah lipos

Still looking at a freestyle model for indoor Alex? I can slide you a copy of this:

[ampEater]

Full fuse? Hmmmm.... Would need 2mm for that

Nah I'm just in the process of building a Kiwi Freestyle atm. But, send me the file anyway as I may build it.....

[SargeNZ]

I'm actually going for 6mm EPP all around... Although now that I think about it.. I wonder how easily I can get hold of 3mm.
