Adam, I just got one, & am assembling it now. But I managed to find a store that was still selling the original red & white version. I'm really interested in how this will perform. I already have a Super Sporter from TexasRCPlanes & converted that to electric. Great into into larger scale aerobatics. You posted a link to this video on my Sporter build thread. Hope mine flies as well as yours does.

I buy the model 125 euro shipping included here in italy! i have disponibile and can use a 14,8Volt 4000 mha 20C or 2x2200 14,8Volt in parallel...
For the problem of wing dismounting for battery changing i wondering of make the battery alloy under del pilot cover glass, OVER the wing did you think it's possible ? or anithing else of more easly battery change ? What kind of servos did you use ?

I used standard servos. I guess it's possible to mount the battery on top of the wing. Just remember it will move the CG way back. Plus you will need to figure out a way to make the canopy removable.(The canopy is made of brittle plastic so it won't take much abuse)

Hextronik HS 50-55 motor and Lite Storm 6s 4350MaH 20c battery pack. About 8 min of aerobatic fun.
