Barry (ShadeyB) Fleming –
Fantastic design once again and super flyer
Built using all 3D parts available 🙂
the build guide is great and faultless following step by step however there is a video available also

set up on 64mm FMS 4s flew great !!
very stable flyer and great at slow speeds also, perfect parkflyer
86mm CG is great but i have it on 90mm from LE and trying to push back slightly more.
All up weight with 3D printed parts, balsa leading and trailing edges, custom paint job, varnish, pilot and canopy came in at 768g which is great but could be built lighter if you wish.
Aileron travel at root 17mm +/-
she rolls great on less as i flew with 12mm in D/R set up middle position on switch
Elevator travel at root 22mm +/-
great authority with elevator and as above flown with D/R in flight with less than the 22 and still had good authority in pitch
No bad tendencies in pitch or roll as yet but hey im sure i’ll hit a tree or two yet
maiden flight here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HbB3xTyM0I

Thrust vectoring still to be played with and looking forward to it. she rolls great
