Surfer X8 Mini sub 250g 800mm best beginner plane unboxed and full build with tips

[Bonzodog]

Love my Bixler and SkySurfer X8 clone, saw this £20 foamie kit and couldn't resist. Something to do while the bad weather continues! It came with hardware and I already had a suitable motor and esc and I've cut down a 3 blade prop which I think is just about right. Plenty of thrust with a 2s 800mA lipo. I've gone lighter than the PNP version, which has a ridiculously large motor and it's come out less than 200g, and I think will be a good little park flyer if I ever get the chance to get out and maiden it!
