Right at the bell!
That looks very well done. Good luck on the maiden. And as you know, we all would love to try our own hand at you design I'm sure... I have an EDF that size, Just waiting...
Good work here! Can't wait for some color
Is that an Angry stick... Showing all it's teeth?
Congrats @Matagami Designs on gettysburg Ng getting the 4 builds completed!

Hopefully the weirdness of thrust tube dosent effect performance too much. It seems fairly light so I am somewhat optimistic.

I was thinking a p40 stick but yeah angry stick sounds good. 🤣
If you want a beta tester.I could help. I have the motor and a desire.

Love the landing gear and the nose. Congratulations on the great video.

Thanks! It was a lot of fun to fly after quite some time. I will be sure to include links to the 3D printed parts when I go back and update the 2nd post for this plane.

Yes it was a good time. The F117 and F-18 were a blast! I don't seem to do get along with the edge however.
Way to go, great maiden! Such a great idea for the paint scheme, definitely one of my favorites.

As I contemplate building a F-117 (your fault, own it! lol) I started looking for plans, guess what thread I found?
Did you get any further on the plans?
I also saw the rack in the background holding planes, and I have been thinking about building one! That gives me ideas.

The plans are posted in the resource section, with plenty of pictures. I dont plan on making any build guide but the pictures should get you 75% of the way and I dont mind answering questions.
If you make a rack like this all I can say is make it bigger than mine. 😂

Finally got around to painting my Edge. Hopefully I do better than my maiden with keeping track of it. 🤞
Unfortunately I burned up my 2nd motor on Dat Rhino after designing and printing some hinges for the elevons which seemed to be working pretty well. I believe the typical paper hinge for this isnt adequate due to the fact that the aerodynamic pressure on the surfaces are twisting the hinge causing it to delaminate sooner than a typical FT design.
Anyone have any suggestions for a motor setup for this 5 x 4 x 3 prop setup on 4s? The club president suggested I put an edf in it but that's a bit of a redesign so maybe something for the future.
