Bill Hempel 25% Xtreme Decathlon

[AMO FOCO]

I am thinking about getting a Bill Hempel 25% Xtreme Decathlon for my DLE 55. I want to put a smoke system in it as well. Any thoughts on the plane?

Thanks

[MENTION=3248]TeamEdge[/MENTION] (Bill Hempel Himself) may have some thought on the subject! I think it's a beautiful plane but have not had the pleasure of seeing one in person so I can't give any advise. Sorry Amo Foco!

AWESOME!

I am here! It is a great airplane and it really looks very sexy! For a 25% model, this airplane looks great! Here are a few pictures... FYI: I am running low on inventory, I think I only have about 5 planes remaining.

What is the AUW? Also, how many servos would I need and how would the DLE 55 with smoke be in this plane?

Hey, sorry for the late reply..... I am not used to checking this site often enough as it is still new..

The all up weight is around 15.5-16 pounds with a 55cc engine. We should have video's of the plane here very soon.
