This is a new version of last year's E-Profile Spearfish - which I flew one time before the Treetown contest in June, one time at the Treetown contest, and a very brief 3rd flight after the Treetown contest. Model torque-rolled across the circle and there were not many very large pieces left. I was going to take some pictures of it after that flight ..
. Anyway, it looked almost exactly like this one and in fact the stab/elevator and rudder/fin were recycled into this model. So, that is sorta like posting photos of it, I guess. This time, before I fly it, I'll post some pictures of it.
Anyway .. it is kit bashed from the Calkins/Brodak Guardian. Has a Hyperion 1000 kV motor, a 100 Amp ESC, 2.4 motor control and uses 4 cells. Spins an 11-7 at 13000 RPM drawing about 90 amps through high speed. Last year's hung well but the slider wouldn't go all the way back and engage the catch, so I moved the bellcrank back about 1/2 an inch and this one seems as though it will slide and engage without some kind of spring or rubber band assist.
Right now it weighs 52 oz., but they usually gain some in the early going.
