Just finished taking my newly electrified Ozprey for some laps at Deagon. She has about a 40degree climb rate, launches of the ground and flew for nearly half an hour on one battery. The motor and battery had no noticeable temperature increase after flying and she is quiet as a mouse. All in all Im wrapped

That looks really impressive Kymbo! How do you attach the wing to the fuse? Andrew

Apart from tucking under the top of the fuselage I had to use some tape on top and a simple rubber ban connection on the tail fin hooking up under the undercarriage. Haven't tried to loop it yet so will probably do something more mechanical before I start doing stunts

What motor and what not are you using Kimbo 1050Kv outrunner with 40amp speed controller and 30C Lipo battery. It flew great until the incident and landing was great fun. I'll make another fuselage this week with improvements

I will be just making my fuse out of balsa wood because i have totaled my other EPP nose so i think this is a good chance to get the wings back in the air again ;D
Wont be as crash resistant but I will just have to be more careful with a balsa nose. Saying that tho, i will probably only be using it on flat field and no wind days so yer it SHOULD be fine ;D ;D ;D
i wanna make this thing go really fast because i know they can go fast on the slope so i wanna go even faster hahahahaha
Regards, Chris
