beleive me i know what CK can do when told "give me something FAST!" haha my 2000w ZII is testament to that ;D and no it is not a brick - 16 oz per sq foot of wing area is easily managed and will cruise on 200w that is with a go pro and 250g of ballst, + fpv cam and vtx, a big motor and massive ESC for a flying weight of 2550g.

Hi,
I like the thing too. It's amazing what molding can do today as compared to the "foam-age" start. But I also wouldn't buy one without knowing what to expect and therefore the youtube video is not enough. You will have to cut the wing to insert the vtx, e.g. at the tip of the wing for an optimal position. I am curious to see how they managed the wing joiners, this is a critical, structural point. So far I have seen a diameter 14mm (I'm guessing) carbon tube, personally, I believe it's a bit on the weak side. Be it the scout bee, the zeph, the alulah, you name it, usually there are no wing joiners and the wings are in one piece. I also belive that after the "looks", the details a manufacturer offers are important, so to say: cut bays, proper rods for the elevons, let's see.
So far, definitely no shooting around with this thing especially with all the equipment in my opinion.
I'll let time tell and follow this thread. The look is amazing though, just my 2 cents...
thanks and regards,
Dio

Is there any interest in doing a group buy into COIN-US (that is lower 48 States US) ?
If so email me at davideno@buffalo.edu .... this will probably be at some point when they re-stock, but we can get prepared.
Let me know by email and I can then network with them as soon as they get back in stock. If possible we might even be able to go in with a local hobby shop or two and get an even bigger order going.

I'm not in the US, so I vote "NO" as you guys will be lapping them up and stuffing them with ET gear I'm sure and that's just wrong for all the right reasons.
