	FLYFLY MIRAGE 90mm Latest and greatest, the Mirage has been built in Australian colours and is a two seater RDU colours, number A3-113. Runs Wemotec Midifan upgrade with HYK 3660 inrunner and our ELITE 4000mah 6s1p 25c packs. 1200 watts sustained, 100+mph level flight and has been clocked at 131mph out of a tailwind! Airframe has been sanded back lightly and glassed with 3/4oz cloth and Polyurethane with Q-cell microspheres mixed in to fill and strengthen the weave. Best finish I have done so far with the glass!
RC LANDER F9F PANTHER The F9F is a brand new model from LANDER, a new Chinese company which is putting in a huge effort into their models. This Panther would have to be one of the best jets out of the box we have had! A new fan unit CNC machined from aluminum featuring a balanced GRP rotor and alloy spinner, powered by a 2847 inrunner that puts out 900 watts on our ELITE 4000 4s1p 25c packs and pushes the Panther along at 105mph level flight! No need for upgrades here, build it in an evening! Hand launch is a breeze and the kit comes with factory retracts as well!
	SAPAC T45 Composite Hawk Our latest composite model, the T45 Goshawk features a fiberglass fuselage and fully built up 100% sheeted wing and tail sections. Wing is one piece and runs outboard ailerons, elevator is all moving design and the attention to detail from the factory is superb! The finish of this model has blown everyone away who sees it, and when you see it fly you have to have one! Factory fan is a 70mm unit which is very tough and very well designed, running the factory 2842 out runner rated to 1000 watts our Hawk has been clocked at 192kmh running a standard 20c EXP4100 4 cell battery! We have made a bungee system to launch the Hawk, it will be available for purchase and makes launching the models easy. The bungee will be suitable for all the HET models as well.
FlyFly 90mm F86 SABRE This is our Black Diamonds version of the FlyFly SABRE, a 1.4 metre wingspan 90mm ducted fan jet, brings a new level to affordable EDF models! Superb flyer, smooth and graceful in the air, scale speed of around 90mph on our 6 cell setups. Our Sabre runs factory retracts with custom made main legs, 2.5” scale rubber wheels with alloy hubs, airframe is completely glassed with 3/4oz fiberglass cloth and polyurethane. AUW is 2.8kg with our EXP4100 6s1p battery pack.
	ULTIMATE 40s BIPLANE The Ultimate 40s is a mid sized biplane made for a 52 four stroke. Mine is built as electric and runs an EMAX 4020-08 out runner, LIGHTNING 60A ESC with built in switchmode BEC, Polyquest 3200XQ 5s1p 30c/50c lipo, PARK HPX/BB servos on rudder & elevator and a waypoint 1706MG for the ailerons. AUW is 2300 grams and the power system runs at 830 watts on an APC1470E prop! Climb rate is excellent, plenty of power, system runs at 44 amps static and a 5 min mixed flight uses 2000mah. Impressive electric aircraft! VIDEO HERE!
EXTREME RC F16 FALCON Awesome aircraft! One of the nicest small jets to fly, you can go from mild to wild with the F16! My personal F16 runs an HET6904 fan unit and Typhoon 3W motor. Minimal modification is needed to fit the fan, it almost drops in place. X-Power MP40A esc is used as this esc can be run on 4 cells with 2 servos and no need for an external BEC, an excellent setup. NOW Running at 550+ watts on the new EXTREME POWER LMP2200 4s1p 25c lipos, the F16 has been clocked at 108mph straight level flight!!
EXTREME F86 SABRE Yet another Jet! Who could resist the F86 Sabre, a classic icon of an aircraft, this is a great little kit with excellent performance running our proven EDF64 setup with small 4 cell battery packs. The beauty of this modular system is being able to use the same batteries in many of our jet models. This model runs a DN LV36A esc on 4 cells and a Corona RD820-II receiver sitting on top of the ESC! These new receivers are fantastic performers and so affordable!
	GWS F15 EAGLE! GWS have really gone all out this time! This jet is huge, lots of detail and classy looks, superb flight characteristics and runs pretty much the same power system as the ME262. Slow fly bys wow the crowd and the rolls and turns are very scale looking. A great looking and flying jet!
F20 Tigershark A very agile and very quick little plane, little being the operative word! Easy hand launch and very responsive, this aircraft flies on rails. We have two packages for this, a 3 cell setup that draws only 15-16 amps, uses an EXP1300 3sap 20c pack and provides almost 1:1 thrust to weight ratio. The popular 4 cell setup draws only 19 amps, uses our EXP1300 4s1p 25c or PQ1200XQ 4s1p 30c packs and pushes the Tigershark to 100mph level flight! AUW around 530 grams and thrust around 650!
	GWS TigerMoth Classic Trainer from GWS, this is the ultimate park flyer, slow and graceful, you can fly it in confined spaces, pulling a maximum of 14 amps static gives up to 20 minutes mixed flying on a 2s2200 battery! Runs APC9060SF prop, 3.2:1 gearbox and 3500Kv in-runner motor.
Red Arrows HAWK EDF BAE RED ARROWS HAWK! Sporting a 64mm 6 blade ducted fan and 2040 size brushless motor as standard, this plane sets the benchmark for affordable beginner’s jets! Extremely easy to fly, very stable, and slows down extremely well, a true parkflyer jet with the looks and the sound to match! Running on our 4 cell power system the Hawk performs very well, the undercarriage works perfectly for hard surfaces. If you are flying on grass just remove the undercarriage and hand launch. One of the easiest planes to throw, it also picks up a good turn of speed with no wheels!
	GWS ME262 My GWS ME262 features 2040 size in-runner motors with half a Hyperion heatsink on each can. Running twin DN LV25A esc’s and PQ2000XQ 4s1p 30c batteries, the planes AUW is 935 grams and thrust is sustained at 1200 grams with a peak of 1.3kg on a fresh battery! Clocked at 95mph level flight!! Finish is that of the famous commander Major Walter Nowotny, one of the first commanders to receive a squadron of Schwalbes (swallows). Videos are linked to the EDF pages on the website, suffice to say the aircraft is very fast with excellent vertical performance.
DC3 (C47 Dakota) GWS C47 transport plane runs stock 300H brushed motors with a basic 25A brushed esc and 2 cell 2200 lipo. Props are APC5.5 by 4.5 with Graupner alloy prop adaptors, gives it a nice look. Flies very scale like and slow fly bys look quite impressive. Finish is RAAF colours, and plane is awaiting its red RAAF insignia and Australian roundels.
	WACO BIPLANE This is a Sportsman Aviation WACO biplane, 30 size converted to electric. Runs Hyperion Z3019 and swings an APC1365E prop at 8500rpm for over 2kg thrust! AUW is 1.48kg and battery is PQ3300XP 3s1p. 50 amp OPTO esc is used with a DN “Ultimate” UBEC. Performance is excellent, unlimited vertical, quick in a straight line and very aerobatic. Not for the faint of heart!
Hyperion CAP232 The CAP232 is a beautiful kit, the fit & finish is superb, and the end result is a plane which flies brilliantly. Power system almost identical to the WACO above, the CAP232 has unlimited vertical performance and can do pretty much anything in the sky (subject to your skills J)
	GWS A10 Warthog “ULTIMATE” A10 build features Hyperion Y22S motors spinning EDF55 fans, dual EXTREME POWER 30A esc’s and either 3s2150 or 3s2200mah 20c battery packs. Fibre Glass covered airframe with Carbon Fibre reinforcement, the AUW has been kept to 675 grams with a 175 gram battery pack, no mean feat!! ROG’s with no wheels, see the video link on the EDF page, plenty of power!
FUNFLY The Fun Fly was scratch built off a plan and is very light for a 36” span model. Runs our 2409-18 out runner with an APC9060SF prop giving 640 grams thrust. As the plane with 3s1800mah battery only weighs 550 grams, this is not bad power! Soon to be tested are the new EMAX series out-runners, the 2215 has a projected thrust of 1.1kg on a 1050E prop at 20 amps! Should be impressive!! J
	ALFA TA183 HUCKEBEIN ALFA Models Huckebein is a rendition of the second generation German jet fighter, a very unique looking plane that was often referred to as the flea. The 3 cell setup runs Hyperion Y22S brushless motor with stock Alfa fan, 30A ESC and various battery packs. It will produce 1:1 thrust with a 3s1300 20c pack and 5-8 min flight times. Best option is 3s1300 – 3s1700 20c pack. ROG’s with little effort, just be careful on climb out, it wants to pull up and stall until the airspeed is up a little. First flight required no aileron trim at all and only 2 clicks of elevator! Insane version runs a custom wound outrunner on 4 cells with 4s1700 20c pack, 30A esc in the exhaust and an external UBEC. Running at 400 watts and soon to be fitted to an Alfa MIG15!
E-GO Models SU27 FLANKER The EGO SU27 Flanker is a great looking aircraft; the swooping nose section rises back over the cockpit area before melding into the huge air intakes for the dual EDF64mm fans! Our brushless high performance version of this model gives the jet a scale like performance, effortless large loops and vertical climb outs that take some time to drop off in speed!
	SUPER CHIPMUNK The Hyperion Chipmunk is a lovely kit, the finish is exemplary like all Hyperion models and it looks like the real thing! Soon to be refitted with our new EMAX 2215 outunner, on a 9045 prop and 1700-1800 20c battery thrust has been tested at 1.15kg!! The performance should be very good don’t you think? J high thrust and around 75kmh airspeed should make for a nice aerobatic scale looking aircraft! Flight reports coming soon!
Being one who likes to experiment, and to support other local businesses, I decided to take one of Paul Daniels Seether pusher prop kits, and rework it with a Wemotec Micro fan unit, the results below were a lot of fun and definitely something different!
Seether EDF The Seether by Paul Daniels was originally designed for pusher props and 2s LiPo packs, but who wants a plane like everyone else’s! I basically flipped the plane upside down and fitted the battery/esc/rx housing underneath, changed the shape to accommodate a 3s1200mah 20c battery, then crafted a housing for the Wemotec micro fan on the top! Performance is pretty good for a 430 gram flat wing. Click HERE to see the video of the little EDF Seether. If you want to know more about building an EDF like the Seether send me an email.
	BF109E My Meschersnitzel! I built this plane a long time ago! was originally designed for 0.35ci glow power, but I have decided to convert it to electric when time permits. It is a 48” span all built up and sheet covered balsa model. Power system will be EMAX BL2826 running an APC1170E prop on 4s4100mah 15c pack. I plan to retrofit some Hyperion retracts into it to finish it off, should look rather good in the air!
