Fly harder!

@The Hangar likes the Kitfox so much that he wants a back pack version... Just don't think the rimfire will fit in there though :ROFLMAO:
Lol, I guess I can go with an F pack...
Lol the rimfire probably weighs more than little shrubby.
Oh don’t worry - I’ll be adding weight with a huge battery - no 450 mah batteries for me - straight to the 1000 or 1500 mah packs!

Finally got around to 3d printing some wingtips for this bird. Batteries are charging right now, I'll report back later today to see if the flight characteristics change.

If anybody is interested you can download the STL's for the wingtips.

Flight report, at speeds the roll rate didn't feel much different might have been a bit faster but kinda hard to tell for sure. At slow speeds though, as with my old shrubby, the roll rate was much more responsive and the ailerons didn't get mushy or lose authority during landings.

Got in a few flights today and one was with Shrubby, didn't end so well though, came in low and slow and the wind turned me and it was heading straight for a pilot cage so I powered up and it rolled with the wind also doing a cartwheel nose plant.
