The Raven ///What to do

[vsnap]

Yea it is a eye catcher. I think with the right timing it would take off, but times are hard across the board and I have to watch what I do. I have been doing this on my dime since the beginning as I was out of work at the time. So it is time to buckle down and catch up.

No reboxing of this baby, 65lbs in one box due to being double boxed with wood on 4 sides to protect from punctures. It worked as it looked like they took a couple hits on the sides. I ditched the boxes and wood, just have standard box to keep them in.

Nice looking bird! Question on the wagons that you have there, what brand and how did you mount the plane supports?

Thanks!

The mounts are my design. I am still looking on a supplier and modifications to make them work better over time. The bigger planes tend to bring about some changes.
but they are bolted to the wagon using basic conduit brackets. That was the easy part, getting the cradle mounted without potrusions to damage the aircraft is the hard part.

All right one is available, who wants it? 899 gets it, with all the options that come with it. C.F. tubes, wheels, hinges installed, fuel tank installed, all linkages provided, etc etc....Perfect plane for the DA-85 with pipe or 3W 75/85 w/pipe. Killer with a 100cc on stock mufflers.

We are talking 22lbs ready to fly with the 85cc engine. Killer plane

I have an EG aircraft Extra 260. My DA-85 is on the way for it. It is basically the same aircraft as the Raven - without
the pretty colours. It is a very solidly built ARF with many premium features - CF gear - tubes etc. even comes with a four in. anodized spinner.
I have a Carden H9 Yak - 50cc - and the quality of the EG Aircraft ARF's are light years ahead. The Yak fleis like a dream, however - I just hope this one does too.
