MrBens Happy Wings 'Wipeout' Build Thread

[MrBen]

Well Matthias C was kind enough to send me a Wipeout airframe to try out and review, I have had several small wings before and have never really been a fan always preferred the larger wings or delta planes that could handle the wind better. I have fpv'd a Ritewing TW40", Zephyr1, Zephyr2 , Zephyr Quadspar, ZephyrXL also a Slipstream 1m Wing and small deltas like the Skyfun and the Funjet. So lets see how this little wing compares!

It came well packaged. However customs grabbed me on this one, Switzerland isnt in the EU so beware of extra charges! I got hit for £30

Initial impressions are that its a very good quality kit indeed, I have started the build and will get some pictures of current progress up over the weekend.

The manual is a little confusing though, its almost like the pages got mixed up a little.

Ok so I started this a few weeks back finally got round to taking a few pictures tonight, Im in limbo on a house move at the moment so its not going as fast as I would like but should be moving next week and can crack on when everything is out of boxes!

I ordered the recommended graupner servos today so they should be here in a few days, Im probably going to go on the recommended setup as far as the motor is concerned anyway but Im sure it wont make a great difference if I change the esc.

All the components below went together with no problems at all!
