Is it just camera perspective, or did EF go back to a thicker airfoil on this one?

One thing I miss about my old 2005 vintage PAU Edge was the thick airfoil, would slow down so nice and easy to land in tight short fields...

Just took a look and ya it seems relatively thick for 50cc plane, not sure if its 2005 thick but will see how she flies, making good progress on it. Weather sucks but should be flying it by next weekend for sure

What is the popular fuel pump/can/station setup you guys are using? I have plenty of good plastic gas cans so I could use one of those if there is a good DIY setup, or is just easier to buy all complete? Electric pump worth it or is the manual pump easy enough?

Jersey Modeler make a nice pre-built manual set up, I have 2 of those
I think secraft makes some electric pumps and parts

Valley View RC sells a ready made two gallon gas can with a manual pump for $49.95.

I had a manual one for a while and i kinda got tired of cranking on it and it stopped working only maybe after 20 fills/de fuels, So i got myself a 12v windshield washer motor off ebay, a switch, a project box and build my own electric set up it was so much nicer just flipping a switch and letting it fill up the planes.

This is the one i purchased. I know they are a ton of different ones, I kinda just took a chance it would work well.

Who would of thought a windshield washer pump would work for gasoline.

Quite a number of companies have sold them as fuel pumps over the years. Some worked well, some not so much.

Will it also defuel?

Yes they are reversible. .

I power mine on a 4s A123 pack i no longer use for anything else it works great.

yes. I have mine on a switch so one way is in the fill other way is to de fuel.

Do the newer EF planes like this one come with wing/stab foil bags?
