    Nice plane but is too heavy...
    Be aware of prop strike if using large props. Just watch @ 2:29min that great sound!!!

    88 ounces (empty) for an airframe only 42" long?

    You better know what you're doin' when it comes time to land this beauty.
    (it probably doesn't bounce off it's nose like the EZ, thats for sure)


    As far as advertising goes, if anyone manufacturer should thank DIYDrones, it would be Multiplex by far!

    Looking awesome, and i want to buy one.
    But:
    - Very heavy
    - very high wing load
    - Need 40A motor and 50A esc.

    It's 2.500 gram with 32dm2 wing, My handmade glider only 700gr with 40dm2 :(
    Thermal capability very important for long duration flights. It must be 1500gr around with this wing.

    It would sweeten up the Sprkfun UAV contest if NirtoPlanes go involved...

    Wow this one may just work!! but $129 pre-order is a bit to much for me to be first...
    Should be able to lift all systems just fine, with long duration on 4s 4000mah,
    but may only be good for one crash...
    Lets have a contest for one of these if NItroPlanes will support us with a donation to DIY Drones?
