Not old news yet, I asked just last week and they weren't released.

Sweet news guys! Can't wait to give one a try.

Taz,

You may be able to get them in Israel soon! "Zero Gravity" (www.zerogravity.co.il) has been inquiring about a dealership over there. I hope things are "safe" in your area.

Kris,

I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to the Triple Tree IMAC meet. I'm off to Cleveland to a giant scale air race soon therefter and need to get things prepared. Good Luck, though, and tell everyone hello!

Gremlin,

Thanks for your interest and support! And there's much more coming on the horizon!

SleepyC,

Bring your video camera, too, because nobody has good vids of these racers in action and FG demands them! I look forward to seeing you there......
$$$ = props.....I'll be sure to bring some along.

Youngflyer,

I've tried hard to keep my prices competitive, so thanks for your appreciation!

Robert,
I'll be filming the racing, and doing overviews and interviews with the guys from team speed demon.
I know Scott and his sons!!

You are correct... these races are really cool,
the "DEATH DIVE" on the opening horn is something to behold!!!

See you there!

Since no one has done us the favor of reviewing the 22-23 inch props, I ordered a 22A and Xoar 22-8 to compare to my BME 22-8 on my BME-50 powered Frenzy. Will have a full commentary next weekend.

The plane weighs about 16.5 lbs, so the BME-50 will be working hard in the vertical direction. It should prove interesting to match up the 3 different designs and compare performance.

I have ordered a 22B to try out on my WM Ultimate, but it is still about two weeks away. I will be doing a comparison with the bolly wood 22x8 I am running now.

Kris - I'm very interested in your results! Any early findings yet? I've got the BME 50 in a BME Edge 540 and would love some more punch out from hover.

Thanks
Terry
