    OK another cool Forward swept wing bird that can be used for FPV, looks like the Larger Aggressor, I can upload my pictures after I get things built, waiting for the ESC to come in and the Paint scheme I want to use. I "Might" use it for FPV but I have two larger planes for that in the Aggressor and Opterra 2M wing. But hey here is the specs.

    • 845mm wingspan
    • EPP molded , embedded with carbon fiber tubes, durable and lightweight.

    • V tail design for added stability
    • Detachable nosecone for GoPro mounting
    • Air inlet and outlet for FPV gear cooling.
    • Compatible with GoPro Hero 5-7.
    • Pre-installed wing and fuselage protector for durability
    • Pre-installed camera and VTX antenna cable for FPV gear.
    • Movable battery slot for “CG” adjustment.
    • Air inlet and outlet for FPV gear cooling.

    Today she was flown since I had some time and after getting everything setup, I made a few changes to the Dolphin.
    New motor mount to move the motor back 40 mm, Mantis 34amp ESC and a Master Airscrew 5.5x4.5 prop. The stock prop was 6x5 but I had this 5.5x4.5 here so I tried it and found this thing is EASY to launch. after trimming it out and landing all I can say is I am happy with this bird.

        I love mine and it flies so well outside of the one failed launch I had at the field last weekend. I only wish there is an EDF version of the plane.

          Well I found the issue for the failed launch, it did the very same thing the Aggressor did when I threw it, it rolled over and crashed. I had it on recovery mode on launch because I am so use to launching my Opterra this way. The Admiral Flight stab it's best to have w/stab on or off but not both which I figured out three planes did the same thing to me before I realized what I did wrong.
          Now the Dolphin is rock solid flyer and soon the aggressor will be as well. but I believe I will use a Spektrum rx going forward and just buy the Kopilot for the rest of my needs.
