We are hopefully meeting Tony at the Nats in August Grumps. I think we should do the flame paint job on HIS nose !!! He is faster than Concorde was.

How does it balance out Tony, that little motor can't be very heavy.. what is it by the way?
do you think we're going to have to lighten the tail end on a dedicated leccy version?

the motor is a bit big, its from the 6lb defunct telemaster. :P emax 2820 and a 2200mah 3s battery.
balance is just about spot on so a lighter tail will not be needed.

I suppose the batteries are heavier than a tank of fuel so it evens thing out.

it might not fly. :P

just a thought, the main u/c, would not a pre formed ali set be easier to manufacture than the bent wire set up of the original.
can buy them off the shelf, might make it easier for the first time builder to do.

certainly something to consider, or offer people the option.
same as wheels, slightly bigger for grass patches maybe.

Maybe one thing has been missed here KK. With an I/C model, the tank is normally fixed. Not so with electric, as usually the lipo can be moved quite a large amount fore or aft.

well at 1/3rd chord with a 2200mah lipo in, the balance is spot on.
might change once i get all the servo's and rods in.
