    Sorry, no video. In fact, I have had it built for months but still haven't put my equipment in it. :eek:

    I am going to try one of the higher KV 2410 style cheapo motors. That should work OK. This is myfirst jet style pusher so I'll haveto experiment with props and batteries.

    hi. im from portugal(europe) . in other day i see that jet model in googlesketch up and i like it, so i decide make it real, but want know if someone already made it???? the owner already do it since may? :lol:
    im thinking put one of that cheap motors with 5000kv ,36gr but i don´t know what battery...maybe 1000 mAh 3s , that will be a rocket, with 5 mm carbon tube in main wing and i what made the wing with airfoil whith 7/8 mm bluefoam


    i did some modifications for me,now aperars more agressive and fast.. i think.. :roll:

    I like the mods you did tmaster.
    With the 5000kv motor you'd have to put a tiny prop on it for a 3 cell lipo.
    I'm sure 7up will like your mods too.

    Hey 7up when you gonna maiden yours?

    tmaster, great mods! I like it better than the original. Thanks for posting.

    3DMON, not sure about the maiden, I've been dealing with some serious health problems the last few months and it has kept my RC activity here on the forum and out flying also to a minimum.

    Maybe I'll get back to my old self before too long.

    I plan on trying a 2410-09 just because I have one on hand.

    Mine at 40" weighed in at 13.5 oz. with no gear so your motor choice should work pretty well.

    Keep us posted :D

    hi. this is final version. i don't film the maiden flyght because i was alone:p and was a disaster , in the 1st flight the plane have much weight in front and dint fly in level. 2nd flight a make a forced loop (my mistake) and the left aileron broken. and the plane fall down doing looping because the battery jump out too and landing on a fence. result: broken aileron and one battery cell cut on middle and this cell go to garbage because make internal short circuit , 2 new 1000 mah battery will arrive from hobbyking, that is 450mah and almost burn with this motor .

    see the photos before flight:

    see u soon Attached files [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    hum. not so bad. could be worse loool. The plane still intact. im think the plane isnt so fast like i want. maybe the prop 6x4E is too small for a 2208 2600kv motor with 3s but if i put a bigger propler the motor didnt overheat?
