Ok here's the build, sorry about the dog!!!!!
One thing, the wing retaining screws are rubbish and Llanyu Hobbies need to address this important issue

Sorry, but it was tedious and annoying to be distracted by sounds of chewinggum

Many - you've given that airframe some abuse!
Do you think teh plastic stood up better than EPP would have?

TBH mate, it really didnt go in that hard, it landed on it's nose on the tip stall and no damage what so ever, as for the cam pod failure, the glider landed on it's belly in thickish grass and the only damage was a piece splitting on the wing which is now fixed and a piece on the pod where the prop sliced it as the pod cam off the glider, dont think it is as robust as the foam though, BIG BIG flaw in the design of the cam pod

Is it documented anywhere what the 'wing area' is of the FPV Raptor Ex ?

Hi,
I am considering this bird to buy soon. How are the wings are theye strong enough?
I had a Skywalker. Its wings were broken in the air and I dont want to experience it again.
Thanks
