la construccion del ala muy buena, aunque no entran los servos de 9 grms, se ha instalado de 4.3 digitales y si van bien como indica el vendedor.
fuselaje de fibra de mala contruccion y cabana de mala construccion, en fibra de vidrio.
la cogida frontal del ala muy mala, hay que hacer modificaciones.
la cogida de los tornillos del ala parte trasera, estan despegados muy mala cogida.
resumiendo se podian haber esmerado mas en la costruccion del fuselaje y es muy pesado 135 grms sin electronica.
el vuelo es muy bueno con un buen ratio de ascenso.
se le podian poner flaps separados, la cola en V, se podia eliminar y poner tanto direccion como profundiad de forma tradicional e iria mucho mejor.
motor outrunner 1290kw con helice plegable 9x5, servos emax digitales de 4.3grms, bateria 2s grafeno 950mah, 2 servos 12 grms metalgear digital

The fitting is ok but needed some adjustments, changed puchrods to carbon instead of metal and also the wing-screwfitting to carbon instead of metal and wood. The total weight with 1300MhA 3S LiPo is 843Grams and that including digital servos with metalgearbox. It flies exccelt and handles great in thermal conditions. So over all im pleased and saticfied with this model :)

Boom was bent.

The quality is usually level.

If you wrote a little gas will be the high-performance nerves.

deamon electric ..
The wings are done well. the fuselage is really disgusting, stort, badly built, the wings are not positioned, a lot of work with the dremel and reconstruction with fiberglass.
dear hobby king, I am very disappointed with this glider

Well,
what should i wrote. Quality is bad. Fuselage was slightly curved and has to be adjusted with heat. Also have to dremel my fuselage to get the wings correct. Good one is the nice coverings. Looks to me this is a bad Quality copy from r2hobby Raptor. If you need detailed build description, download the raptor documents or just read the the rcgroup.com Raptor threads. @HK. Nextime do a better Quality checking Job.

Straight up review:

Issues: Canopy doesnt fit Give me a break! TONS of mod required, Paint on fus is fair, you will need a 32MM spinner not 30, tail mods are required to attach V tail because a simple glue up wont work with a 80 HL, Wing servos will need to be slim wing mounts and then more mod will be required to get them to fit, all glue joints are crap will need to be redone.

Plus items: Nice cover job, the glass work on the Fus was pretty good.

I noticed by the pics on the internet that this model used to come with a CF canopy but now its painted fiber glass that doesnt fit, I wonder if they shipped the Radio Deletes to the US warehouse?

My speedy is a much better birsd an it only cost 70 so this one is overpriced.

First about the quality: Why the hell did you take Polyurethane instead of epoxy for the fuselage?! It was slightly bended, so it was a lot of work to fit the V-Tail straight. Also the wings did not fit, it took about 1h with the dremel until the gap was big enough.
The cabin cover was not fitting at all, probably also because it bended after taking it out of the mold. I just made a new one. It is just sad for the work when you economize some cents on the material so it can not even work. Polyurethane contracts while drying, so it's quite clear that this can't work and bends everything!!

Other ways, the wing is built nicely. And the plane flies great, it's really fun! The control is smooth and direct. It's a nice slow thermal glider, but when you take the nose down, it goes also quite fast! But take care, the wings are not built for very high speed, thy start so oscillate when you go up to the limits and then straight down in one line!

Building took me about two days and it's not for beginners, because you have to fix a lot small details.

For the setup, I took:
Corona 939MG
Carbon Fiber 10x6 Folding
32mm Alloy folding Prop (Sadly this spinner does not fit the prop, it is 6.5 instead of 8mm and i had to drill the hole bigger for the motor!)
NTM Prop Drive 28-36
TURNIGY Plush 40amp
Turnigy 1800mAh 3S 30C

The plane goes vertical and the motor is quite light. But the motor is a
