Memorial day morning flights. I prefer the 70mm F-104 over the stock 90 due to a better thrust to weight ratio; really zippy with the EDF Hobbies 12 blade inrunner.

REALLY BEAUTIFUL JOB!

Thank you Urrl ! So have you put the V2 F16 upgraded gear in yours yet ? They fit perfect with a tire swap on the mains, and the front strut rotated 180 degrees. You had a great Idea putting the afterburner inside the tailcone. I'm doing the same thing to mine.

Decals are here !

Lighting test

Nice work, scooter! The decals and the weathering really make it look the part! The lighting system is a really cool touch as well.

Thanks Delta Dart ! Finally starting to get things buttoned up. I bench tested Elmer's power setup, and Wow ! This thing is going to go vertical.

Hope your maiden goes well scooter genie.

Can anyone tell me how well the epo version flys with the original "gen 1" 6s ,6 blade edf out of the eps version. Crashed on maiden(so nervous i left the bind plug in.) Repaired it,had a few good flights till i spun it in on a too slow turn to final. Ready for another one. Epo version i assume is heavier. Using 6s 4000admirals.

I have the same question as I have that set up sitting around as well.
