Hey guys, I sincerely apologise if I made any rude comments in the past, I dont want to dug that matter here so Im going to start with the built thread of my skysurfer 1500mm.
You may have seen my older post about it. if not here is the link
http://www.rcindia.org/electric-planes/rci-6th-sweepstakes-entry-scratch-built-skysurfer-v3-1500mm/msg234859/#msg234859
that thread consists of maiden video too and doing some stunts like rolling circles and all..
that plane was not a fast one, It couldnt do any loops(not enough power). but in the speed wise t was great!
the plane has a good glide ratio, handles very good, good rudder authority, not to pitch sensitive and roll sensitive.
but now when I know that the plane flies, I want to go after the speed, I did some low passes with the present version(high speed) and I was like I,"yeah! that feels amazing!!" So now im making some changes in the fuselage to fit a 8" prop instead of 6", lets stop talking, just see.

Excellent!
Its faster. dint u build the wings?? Were they previously made?
That;according to me; would render u out of sweepstakes. Ask any mod. For more info.

MavRKB

Thank you sir!!
Sorry my bad, I didnt posted the pics earlier,
i will be making a built video for this plane(keep an eye on that one, its going to be interesting!), these are some screen shots from the clips itself!

Just in case if someone thinks, the wings are old, then NO, I just like the yellow and blue colour combination!
If you ever played asphalt 8, the camaro has the same colour scheme, thast my fav. car and colour so....
as you can see, 3 wings are already there, red ones are the same sides(right and right), (yellow one)one of them are at 80% and one is at 100%, again these are different then the ones which are for the contest.

Nice looking wings, Mav. What are the slots n notches at the root? Any close up pics? How do you join the wings, ....yet to see the video
"The Flight Of The Bumblebee"

MavRKB

Hey, thanks!
the slots and the notches in the wing are just for alignment, the wings have a Al spar(8mm thick, 102cm long).
They work just like any other skysurfer/blixler, no rubber bands just slide them in and they are good to go.
