Good to hear the maiden went well. Can't wait to see it fly.

Wish you were there Marc. I was disappointed to miss your Lanc too -- reports Sunday morning were glowing. Maybe next weekend..?

To those who inquired, here's the T-bird manufacturer's page: http://www.skyangelrc.com/T-33.htm

The plane is part of a 50mm EDF, EPO-foam series designed and manufactured by JPower / Sky Angel. RCGroups has a thread on the whole series: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1158665

I got this one Receiver-ready from X-Flight, but for some reason that site no longer lists the T-33. For what it's worth X-Flight was excellent to deal with: price was good, shipped fast and it was fairly well packaged. X-Flight still lists some of the other JPower airframes from the same series -- worth looking at. Google tells me Flyerhobby.com is listing the plane now for $90 RTF (rather than Rx-ready), and free shipping to Canada: http://flyerhobby.ecrater.com/p/9575714/sky-angel-t-33. Ho ho ho?

Wish we had a camera there Dave. The T-33 looked and flew great...no lack of power on take off, which seems to be the big problem with EDFs.

HobbyKing just listed what appears to be the same plane but in Blue Angels colours: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... duct=14618.
