That looks real nice Josh, sorry about your loss.

I'm digging the second scheme! How long did it take you to do all that?

1bwana1 · 06-19-2009, 09:51 AM

Josh,
That plane is huge, how did you transport it? I was always amazed at your ability to pack your little Honda Mini-Van, but I can't believe you got that plane in it.

The gear channel is also the better slave channel for elevator, IMO.

BTW Andrew, this plane has serious shwing factor! I'm in love!

Wojcigitty · 06-23-2009, 07:27 PM

My apologies, Josh. Look at it this way:

1. You were not inside of the airplane.
2. It was not your daily driver (you can still get to work the next day).
3. It's an ARF. There's a lot of set-up involved, but you didn't have to build it.

Just trying to put it in perspective.

I really like this airplane and can't wait to see some video. BTW, I really like the price.

BoneDoc · 06-23-2009, 10:54 PM

I fixed it, and recovered it within a week or so

.

I'm a little more sanguine about it.

My wife got me the 3DHS 103" Extra 330 SC for Father's Day, so I'm totally stoked about it!!!!

.

At some point, I'll be back in the saddle of another 126" Slick, but for now, I think this is a better jump for me from 50cc. Part of the good thing about this is that I haven't applied the Red Bull decal yet, so I'm "obliged" to get another Slick and put the decal in her

.

Nick,

I'm really loving flying the plane. I have not been able to do much more flying with the f3a nats coming up but after that and the worlds it will be time to get this bird out and do some flying. I will have one with a 170 at Tucson as well as one with a 200 in it.

Sorry guys....late and hard work night made me post in the wrong thread. It was meant for the 50cc slick thread....uuhhgg!

BoneDoc · 06-24-2009, 04:42 AM

Awesome Jeff. The good news is that it only gets better from here

Cool deal. I was thinking I might need a new plane for the '09 Shootout and this is eye-catching, but it looks like they are back-ordered by a few months and I'm short on cash right now, anyway. So maybe it can be my 2010 bird. Look forward to seeing more of it!

BoneDoc · 06-24-2009, 11:38 AM

The build schedule is so tight right now with all the new planes in the lineup as well as replenishing current fleet, that I think these are build to order at this time. Better yet, PM Ben about it and ask him for the detail.

bodywerks · 06-24-2009, 12:07 PM

Thanks. Money is tight right now with a pending big "D", so i can't commit to anything at this time. All I know is that AJ had a big hand(well, he pretty much designed it) in the design of the Fliton AJ330 and it was one of the best flying planes I have had my hands on to date, so I can only imagine what a 150cc AJ design must be like. I am stoked about this design for IMAC and hope that my $$$ sitch gets better soon so I can have one in my hangar.

Animal Jesky · 06-24-2009, 01:29 PM

Nick,

When we make it out to Tucson your more than welcome to fly my plane when were out practicing.

Andrew

BoneDoc · 06-24-2009, 03:30 PM

That's a dangerous proposal

. There's no going back once you've flown it
