First impression: The aircraft came undamaged in a double box. Really nice made painting, very glossy. All parts as described, no instructions. ( t.b. downloaded in net ) Over all more work to finish than it looks to be, but this aircraft is not a beginners plane, but one for the really experienced. On the first look, everything seems to fit in place as it should. Aircraft will be prepared for a "dolly" take of with bungee. 2 wheels will be "half in/half out mounted into the front part of the intakes, reinforced with carbon to avoid damage on intake front lips when landing. during build up and after first flight this commend will be updated.

not impressed with this plane. Item arrived damaged.
once the plane was completed I had 2 x 4s 4000 lipos with the dps 68mm edf unit 1000 watts per unit and still could not get the jet off the ground. so I tried fitting big tyres and using 5s battery's on both edf units putting out around 1600watts each Which was still not enough power. very unhappy about this plane (failed project).

Cuidado aos compradores. Este avio muito pesado para o tamanho.

O meu ficou com um peso total de 4200g, usando bateria de 5000Mah 6s, 2 edfs 10 blades.

No voei ainda, pois no acredito que v sair do cho com todo este peso. (O Empuxo total das duas EDFs de apenas 3,0 kg).

Started assembling this plane over the weekend, using HK DPS series 68mm alloy fans instead of the supplied plastic units , you can unscrew the intake lip or grind it off to fit these fans .
Fired up the fans this afternoon Wow!! Using a 5800mAH 4s Zippy to power both fans the power was impressive had to hold the fuse really tight it wanted to go / launch.One snag, a near disaster was that the amount of intake pressure at high throttle was collapsing in the walls of the intake ducts and the inner fiberglass lining at the duct entrance peeled off the outer wall on both intakes, had pieces of this lining broken off it would have been good night to the fan rotor blades for sure . I had to epoxy this lining back onto the outta duct which was no big deal but I can still see the walls of the ducts being sucked inwards at high throttle settings .
Was about the only problem I had so far, it's an impressive looking model not really my color scheme but it looks really good with it's gelcoat like finish.

Just ordered mine! Looks very slippery, and with a couple of 68mm air suckers installed, should make for some interesting flights. Might be worth noting that including the 7 recommended servos, two 60amp ESC's and the motors, came in at a shade under 200.00 GBP Delivered to the UK, watch this space, and I'll let you know how I get on!
