    What is that setup you have for getting the airspeed?

      Stock Freewing. 60-120c battery shallow dive. Regular cruising around is probabbly 85-90. Looks slower I think because of the size..

        Sorry, should have been a little more clear on the question on what I was inquiring about. What is the electronic device and the setup that you are getting the real time air speed from?

          hey fellas,
          This is sort of related. I went to flying field last weekend with my radar gun and radared a stock Stinger 90 at 108 mph. I will take it out again this weekend to try and get speeds on the Freewing F-16 and T-45.

            Yeah, that's a cool little gadget! Being a guy, I have to have one, or at least borrow Charlies!

                I feel that it lacks power personally. I'd like to get the fan unit with motor and esc from a Stinger 90 and install it.
