It's pretty much the same size. You can fit a 3s 2100 (maybe a 4s... maybe). The biggest battery we can race with is a 1350 3s so the plane was built to fit that pack.

Jon,

Some day when you're putting a plane together like this, I'd love to come over and watch. I haven't even figured out how to vacuum form plastic parts, let alone make complex plane molds. I'm itching to learn.

Thanks Dave. It's been a long road this winter. The molds turned out workable, but not really as nice as I had hoped. And I'm still learning how to make good flaps on a hollow molded wing...
