Aros, WOW those pictures of the plane in flight are fantastic!!! they look real,
So I was able to cut some of the battery tray away to accommodate my batteries,
This plane is very light for its size, I was comparing it to the weight of my freewing F-18 and F-22 and they are within 50g at flying weight. Both those planes have 64mm 3300kv 12 blade motors.
and while adequate, they are kind of on the slow side, I am not sure of the Kv in the SR-71(they are unmarked) but I was taxiing around and the plane does seem quite peppy. So if the plane is the
same weight as my freewing planes but with twin motors, I suspect it will be much quicker than either of the F-18 and F-22.
I replaced the goofy plastic wheels as it acted as if the plane was on ice, it wouldn't grab when turning slow and just kept going straight. the servo was turning but it was skidding
Waiting for calmer wind before maiden ,planning on this weekend!
