    I must agree! I've been eyeing aerobeez for a while, and have seen them do nothing but improve their products. I'm really looking into the raiden, digging the original green/wht/blue scheme they had because the contrasts that it gave, and now I'm curious how the new one looks... I very much...

    Way cool! I would personally like to see the 78" Typhoon & 78" Extra 330SC (R?) under the canopy. overhead shot, and one looking fwd towards the firewall and one aft towards the empennage. The Firewall box up front. Wing Root chord looking into the ribs and tube support. Horiz Stab attach...

    he he he I'm pretty tempted to try an Aerobeez airframe. It's kinda tricky getting models to Alaska. The website does not have any photos of what any of the new aircraft look like inside. So my solution was to swing by while I was visiting the area and seeing for myself. (last minute I know!!)...

    Thanks for the input @Bipenut53 and @Bunky.F.Knuckle I'm going to try out some new Savox HV servos SV-1260MG from @SupaTim 's NWRC. There are a little heavy, pricey (yet cheaper than MKSHV9767) and stupid high torque/speed on 7.4V let alone 8V. Overkill.... most definitely. :yesss: fun fun fun!

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Brought the 71" slick out to the field. slapped it together, fueled it up, took down the runway barriers, did a preflight...... darn. one of the allen head clamshell bolts on the LH aileron Spot-On RC V1 Servo arm had sheared. Maybe a post flight checkup should have been done.... and OF course...
