@ Steve K - have you flown it yet? Comments, videos?
Will APM work on this ? What is max weight ? Any suggestions for lifting max payload? I'm thinking a of using Tmotor 3515 -400kv witha 16x5 blade or a Kopterworx kw8 motor (710 kv) with a 14x7 blade or a axi 2820-14 with a 14x5 blade
Did anybody get a nex5, nex6, or nex7 to fit?
Nex does not fit but that's ok I plan to do some mods anyway
What is the flying skill level required? Beginner or intermediate?
Still have some in stock?

I got an email saying the plane is on it's way.... thanks Robert for actually having stock and not listing it until you do.... and for such fast service.

How do the wings attach? They just snap in place and then you slide them forward to unlock them?
EDIT: Zooming in on the photo it looks like they can be glued in place? No way to make them easily removable for transport? Cool plane!
Always interesting to see new platforms become available. The wings must have quite a bit of chord to make a 1718mm span look that stubby.
I imagine I have to do some mods
can you tell me be weight of foam an spars and wood only? I won't be installing landing gear etc
