Very nice, Derek. Resolution on my phone isn't adequate to make out the vortex generators, though.

Very nice! Is it ready for the Nats?

Very nice Derek, nice to still see a new model with a "real" engine.

Looks very cool man, I dig the skull and cross bones on the leading edge. Look forward to seeing it in person.

Isn't that the three bladed thing on the nose?

Still waiting on some glow-in-the-dark, neon green ones...

Outstanding, you do great work, that is over the top!! When do you plan on getting in some flights? Unless its a secret what was the final weight and what length lines will you use? I plan on flying my new plane this Wednesday, but I'm unsure what length lines to start with. I have several sets (.015-7 and 19 strand) from 62 to 65 feet. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks Don,

I plan on flying it this weekend, weather cooperating. The final weight is 64oz. I will use 65' lines, which is my standard for .65 sized planes. I don't know if you feel any difference between, the 7and 19 strand. I use 19.

It will be there, even if it's the backup.
