What makes it a "Super" scout XL vs just a Scout XL?

It has a bomb bay vs the old one I don't think did. BTW I like your profile pic!

I think it goes together different too.

Thanks, that was the second FT plane I built. It was pretty twitchy due to the short tail, but flew good otherwise.

Thanks, I just happened to watch it. Looks like there were several good upgrades to the design.

I scratched built a Scout XL awhile back but it crashed on takeoff. I think it was caused by me having to make the wing removable in order to fit it into my car. I am sure that FT have made a better job of a removable wing in this new version. I recovered the XL power pack from my first build and have a couple of 3300mAh batteries. It also looks like a scratch build is possible as Josh states that the plans are available for paid FTCA members.

Actually I really wanted to see a Stick XL and did make a start on scaling it up by 139% but like so many other projects it too got put on the back burner.
Spitfire76's Build Log of a Stick XL
Here I go again starting yet another project when I have so many incomplete ones in various stages of construction. I have built the FT Simple Stick and it flies great but wanted something the size of the Hanger 9 Ultra Stick that one of my fellow club members flies. I have a FT 2814 1100 kv...

No, that’s my last huge motor, (minus a 650kv flat 50mm motor.)
