Time for some new epic Tomcat action!

I know a few others have done mods to the FLIR chin pod, and I though I might take a shot at it....

Nice job, are the files available?

Well guess guys just get the v2 that just came back that way have spare parts off ur v1 get the arf plus save some money use your v1 motors! Just my thoughts I did!

Still waiting.

I gave up and sold mine. I still have my 80mm. Just need to replace the cracked main gear servo housings.

Still waiting like many others :disappointed:

Doing some testing with LEDs other than white, red & green... Which is your favorite?

The 3DP FLIR chin pod has evolved quite a bit in the last couple weeks. I am building the flight test articles now (eg assemblies for my friends...)

Still waiting like many others :disappointed:

I know a few others have done mods to the FLIR chin pod, and I though I might take a shot at it.... Planning to use a purple LED in the center barrel. The anti collision light cover is printed in transparent red, but not lit. Option to print a flat lens (clear PETG) or purchase a mini 13mm LED lens from AliExpress.

Thankful the V2 wings I ordered arrived yesterday. The protective packaging was very basic, but only a minor dent next to the aileron control arm was observed. It was caused by the control horn on the opposite wing. Feeling very lucky the other items in the box did not get an opportunity to leave lasting impressions on the wings.....

Flew my V1 with V2 wings. It's like a different plane. Low speed handling is better, MUCH easier to land..

If you have a surviving V1 and can manage to get hold of a set of V2 wings I definitely recommend the upgrade. You'll need a pushrod set and a 9g reverse servo in addition to the wings.

I did send an email to a rep that was actually corresponding with me about the V2 wings. I don't want to shoot the messenger, but maybe he can convey the message to the purchasing department. I'm willing to bet if they brought in 50 sets they would have sold. I still feel that V1 purchasers should have been given a discount and a 1st priority on purchasing a V2 wing set!:rolling_eyes:

Last time I was waiting on similar parts they got 9ea. Sounds like what happened today.

[handyman220]

I sent several notices for back in stock notification, never received anything showing they were in stock. I have been very patient waiting for the V2 wings. Motion sold out within 5 hours what did they order 20 sets of wings!!! I'm a very unhappy customer at this point.

[freakbrother]

Sold out. They didn't last long.

[kallend]

5 V2 wing sets left!

[kallend]

A few V2 wing sets were available this morning and I ordered a pair.

[Evan D]

V2 wings in stock.
