It made a very impressive combination. His e-mail address is <A

<DIV>Matt,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Before you guys fly it...contact Jeff Carrish...he has been flying one
now for about 2 months...There are some mods that are needed. The motor Mount
is one. Also we moved the incidence on the wing. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Flies much better than stock setup...there were a couple things to check
out also....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But have your buddy get a hold of Jeff.....</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>He has the skinny on it and has probably more time than anyone in the US
on them. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>That fuse is a little different to look at but it does look very good in
the air. Still trimming.....</DIV>

FAMILY="SANSSERIF">This the Fiber Classics, painted in the mold, Pattern
Model. My friend just got one for Christmas and he brought it over for
inspection.<BR><BR>It is a full 2mX2m plane with a very deep fuselage, yet
moderate (about 6") width. It is, of course, state of the art composite
construction. The wing is basically a main spar with top and bottom
skins. There is only one rib where the aileron servo installs, and one root
rib. Each wing panel weighed in at 13.8ozs, very light and
strong.<BR><BR>The fuse is constructed similarly, with minimal internal
structure, yet it is also very light and strong. Including stab, rudder,
carbon fiber fixed gear, carbon fiber spinner and engine mount, it weighed 3
lbs, 10 ozs. All these components are included in the "kit".<BR><BR>The
engine mount, which I found refreshingly different, was quite a clever, very
simple and light set-up: Basically it is two 1/2" fiberglass rods, extending
from the firewall to the nose ring with an area machined to accept the
YS or OS motors. It looks like both ends of the rods are soft mounted, with
the nose ring ends onto rubber grommets and the firewall ends onto a
phenolic like material. No nose ring is needed with this
set-up.<BR><BR>Model should not weigh more than 10 1/2 lbs, finished. That
is light for a model this large ( it is larger than my Alliance by a
bunch).<BR><BR>Really neat plane with some very thought provoking ideas
incorporated. Considering what the ZNLIne and PL Products kits cost, or the
Zen 140 and Angel Shadow for that matter, this model is a bargain at 1850$.
Gary said he got his in a week.<BR><BR>Matt
