Title: Airbender first Look
Post by: Mike Griffin on December 19, 2010, 12:04:53 PM

Here is a first look at the Airbender Prototype. It is still in the rough state and the blue stuff you see is Super Fil. Still have a lot of sanding to do yet and apply the wheel pants. These are just to give you an idea of the shape of the ship. I welcome your feedback.

Nice work, Mike!

What engine will you use and what are you thinking for colors on the finish?

means not really fussed by it - but I like newer looking designs - all personal preference - looks good - should fly well too from what I have read about your development - just not a fan of the shape (personally, not a critisicm)

Certainly it has some influence of the Zephyr, but I like it. Should be an interesting flier.

Mike,

Your model is looking good here from Denver.  Been visiting our Best Man and his family.  Wonderful weather in Denver.  It has been sunny and not too windy all week.  I do believe the snow from ski country will be invading the eastern area soon.  We will be home by tonight.
