Bill nice build she looks pretty in the photo, and floaty in the video. Fun times building from a box of sticks. I need to get something on the building board for a winter project.

Got a few more flights on it now. I have gone to a little bigger battery to give it a touch more nose weight and that seem make it a bit more stable.

That is great you are getting some good flights i. While in the shop digging out some wood for a plane I'm working on I found my kit of the 15 powered Butterfly powered soarer that I may have to build.

A friend of of mine has a butterfly he has converted to electric. He put a power 25 eflite motor on it. A bit of overkill but it still floats really nice with power off.
