The Funtana, built from a kit, sold through Desert Aircraft, does have a<BR>
Hacker Brushless system in it. Gary Wright in FL has one, as do the Hacker<BR>
guys in Phoenix. Here is a link on RC Universe to some video of the Funtana<BR>
hovering and flying around.<BR>

This set-up was with Li-Poly cells, not the Ni-M cells like Gary had been<BR>
flying. I believe the set-up was the B-50 13XL with a 6.7:1 gear drive and<BR>
APC 22x12E prop (electric), but don't quote me on that. It flew a bit slower<BR>
in straight lines than my friends with the OS-160, 18x8 Mejzlik at the same<BR>
weight. But at the 12 minute mark, I was still hovering the electric<BR>
version, and 2 minutes landed with the OS version. There is more info in the<BR>
rest of the post...happy reading.<BR>

Yes that's it. Gary Wright. Didn't he fly it at the last TOC in demonstration?<BR>
