Racer kit?

[metroidrc]

I'm just curious if you guys would be interested in a kit of the Axon Racer without any electronics, just the fan units. I could recommend what motors and speed controls you would want to use.

i'm thinking about to make something like this on my own
Isn't it a 55mm 4000kV (30A ESC) ducted propulsion and 55mm 2000kV (15A ESC) ducted lift fan? Add 3s1p@1800mAh Lipo and some polyethylene foam, 4g steering servero and you are ready to go... isn't it?

I'd go with a bigger servo - I'm replacing all the 4g servos with 8g for better steering and reliability. Sure have a go at it! Looking forward to see what you come up with.

I have some spare Dynam 8.4G servos and 18A esc to start with

I've already gotten a special request order for a no electronics kit, so I guess I'll make it an informal announcement of $99 Axon Racer Kit, no electronics, plus $15 shipping conUS. Includes fans, rudder assembly, skid, base, Lexan painted hood, instructions and our nice packaging :)

Requires - two brushless or brushed motors 370 size.
Two or one ESC (depending on if you go brushed or brushless)
8 gram servo
Receiver
1300 - 2200 3s lipo battery
2 channel radio

Thank you for info.
one esc for brushless? lift fan is always on 100% or it is a mixture of propulsion throttle and lifting?

[metroidrc]

you can mix the two fans or have the lift fan on seperately.

kit version is up on the site now for all that have been interested and who have some spare motors, esc's and servos laying around.

Just sent you a PM about this. I just wanted to verify that they're in stock and that I could get one by Christmas.

Would this motor work OK?

3 channel is the most you would need.
