anyone know where I can get a sea angel kit for an orignal price and not an inflated 80 dollars? I really dont want to cut out something so complicated, but dont want to overpay more than double.

The foam board many of us use is approximately 5mm.

I don’t know but I’ll cut it for free all and ship it to you like a kit. All you would have to pay for is the shipping which should not be able to that much.

It is absolutely immoral to have and display such skill! Congratulations, it's a beauty.

After a complete failure as an edf, OV10 is being resurrected as a VTOL. Maidened 3 inches off the patio, but 35 mph gusts prohibited further flight testing. Hopefully this week.

Very nice! Will have my non-vtol Bronco in the air soon!

That is because it takes a butt load of inspiration from the McTwist.

Back to the drawing board. Grossly under powered. Had 2 x 1200kv on front 1 1100kv on rear, all 3s. Would not get off the ground. Going to look at some 4s motors and see what fits the bill. Interestingly, my standard OV-10 has 2 2812-1534 motors and flys great.

Try them at 4S for fun. Just watch for heat.

Hover takes more power than propulsion...
