Maiden went great! I've got some video to share too!

This thing has no issue with full power throw.. And it even makes that awesome whistle sound on launch! This thing couldn't have turned out better.

Haha. Just a few tweaks to the plans are needed but she's ready to be tested by others. Anyone interested in beta testing?

Absolutely!! Still working on mine and trying to perfect the 1/2 oz glass wing. Also just received my new ELF from Kennedy Composites. These things are a blast!!!

Hey Nick, lurker_no_moar is me on Reddit, where do you get your carbon arrow and flat aluminum bar around the South Bay?

Also this will be my first of your builds so I'm bound to have a few clarifying questions.

Thanks!

Hey Matt! Lowes carries the aluminum and I got my arrows from Walmart online. You might find them on the floor but I think it's seasonal for them.

I'm glad you're giving this one a go. Please post any questions you've got in this thread so others can benifit too.

I'm in...

I'm going to try a *slightly* scaled down version, say 98% and then skin it in CF and remove the internal DTFB.

There's a video here of the technique.

Why? Well CF!

Main reason is I'm looking at ways of improving the lifespan on my DTFB planes...
