Default RAVENS RAVENS Proto's coming

Well the DawgHouse just go bit. WE HAVE CANCELLED THE 85CC LINE due to complications with the manufacture.

All pre-orders will have been credited by friday.

I am sure you will see these aircraft suddenly pop up on another retailers web site if you know what I mean....

Thank You guys, we will try to pull through this.

Scott
The next prototype is on the way...Production conformity is done, they are on the way for testing in the states...Just a sneek peak and will be priced at 899.99..

Looks sweet, but that landing gear is WAY too tall - make that your first change.

The gear needs height due to the powerplant prop combos available today. If we go lower we will threaten the prop clearance on a 2-bladed prop. We will look at it though when we get it set up if it looks like it can be done and is needed we will.
Thanks
Scott

Well if all goes well we will finish the 85cc line then 100cc line then possibly some 150cc models...In this time period the advertised 50cc line will be upgraded to ultracote to complete the lineup. Do not have a time table yet, still working on building a business from this.
