Here it is, almost RTF. Still have to put all electronics in. I'm using a the Sonic 182 wing, 72". Scratch build fuse and vertical and horizontal stab. Have mixed ailerons to flaperons. Turnigy Park480 Brushless Outrunner 850kv. 30 Amp ESC, 10x9 prop may prop down to a 9X6. Hoping to have the maiden flight tomorrow, weather permitting! Trent, thank you for all your help here and on your YouTube channel. RCDAWGMC Attachments:

Well, I flew her today, successfully, Kinda. Still have to work out the CG and will have to up my ESC, only using a 30A. I'm using a Turnigy Park480 850kv and a 10X5 prop, was a little hard to get her up. So I may upgrade the motor as well. All that said, she flew and was able to land safely. I received my 5.8G 200mW pulg and play system specially designed for FPV today, so will be setting that up as well in the next few weeks. Will update as things come along.

RCDAWGMC, That is awesome! Your nova might look better than mine! You'll have to show the FPV videos, that would be a blast to watch. I'm still getting into that whole arena, and am pretty impressed by those who can do it well. If your nova needs more thrust, consider a higher Kv motor. My nova has a 2220 to 1800 kv motor, which will turn just that much faster: www.hobbypartz.com/75m55-optima450-2220-1800kv-2.htmlSo cool man... it looks great!
