I picked up this 72" Jessica from Polk's Hobby, they were getting out the ARF business and where letting everything go for $25 a piece (I also grabbed a DC-3, more on that at a later date).
It came with a speed 600 brushed motor and an 8x4 folding prop, I decided to add a 3.3:1 planetary gearbox and a 13x7 folding prop and will be using a 3s lipo. I hope to maiden her soon.
My son Thomas is modeling "Jessica".

I recently got an altimeter, the How High SP from Winged Shadow. It's cool knowing how high I go. These are a few pictures with a FlyCamOne2 on a SkyFly taken from 662ft.

New Formosa to replace the one old battered and bruised one. Slightly more powerful motor and different paint scheme, but otherwise the same as the old one. -
