SAY WHAT???? AEROBEEZ 40% EXTRA PROTOTYPE!?!?!



​

HOLY COW THAT'S A BIG BEAUTIFUL PLANE! Last week Aerobeez unveiled a new 40%'r at Joe Hunt Flyin!

This is not necessarily going to be a production plane, at least not yet. According to Ray at @Aerobeez they want to compete at a competition level (XFC in the future???) and continue to prove they have what it takes to be a well respected, quality big brand! Santiago currently has it in his hands and they are passing it around to all the team pilots for input. Ray said this is version 1 or many revisions to come. It's no secret that they have the right mix of great customer service, great pilots, vision and a quality product. I for one am really excited to see what comes of this! Here are some additional pictures to drool over!

Now [MENTION=2215]Aerobeez[/MENTION] that looks sweet!! I hope to maybe see some more details on this, engine size?, Weight? I have to imagine it is around 126" wingspan.... So maybe a 120cc? Very interesting!!

It's actually more like a 45% sized airplane. It's stupid light, flies like it's on rails, zero coupling everywhere, easy to hover. Santi has a DA-200 on the nose on cans (the thing is UBER smooth!!!) with Hitec 7980's all around with the JR X-Bus system onboard. Very light flying airplane even with the beastly DA200 on the nose- it still yanked it around like a rag doll!
Basically one big hucking airplane!!









With this being the prototype, there is still some refinements that will come down the tunnel. I personally haven't extensively flown it (only been on the sticks for 3-4 minutes) but I can tell that I will like this airplane a lot once I get a chance to wring it out. Santi is competing this coming weekend in IMAC with it.

Thanks so much @Xpress for you words on this plane. I heard that a bigger motor maybe in the future for this beast as well. It looks awesome and I am sure Nick ( @I Love Nachos ) had his hand in those graphics.

Thanks [MENTION=3822]Xpress[/MENTION], must be a small fortune invested in servos, I see 10 visible servos, how many on the rudder?

 

[Xpress]

12 servos for the control surfaces, 3 on each aileron, 2 on each elevator, and one on the rudder [MENTION=3348]Bipenut[/MENTION]

I think Nick definitely designed the graphics for it, that has his name all over it

So Xpress it sounds by the way to were talking about it you got to try your hand on the sticks with this beast. How was it brother?

Yes, as I said in my first post I got to fly it for a few minutes

It tracked straight as an arrow, no coupling I could find. Santi had it setup for IMAC when I gave it a try so I couldn't fly much 3D with it, but it was super stable in any attitude I put it in from high alpha in any orientation, to hovers, point rolls, everything. I'd definitely like to get a chance to huck it but Santi probably won't be so willing to hand over the sticks again anytime soon

eh I didn't catch the end of the post. Must of been a blast even it was for a short time. Ever fly a plane this size and power?

 

[Xpress]

Negative! Biggest airplane I've flown! Rest assured, if you can fly a 30% or 35%, this airplane is no different, just bigger and hurts the wallet a little more if you crash
