Ritewing Mini Drak.

I'm thinking this motor might be quite nice on 3s, and a 6x6 prop....

Andy, I'm in. Let me know how & where to send the beer tokens.....

Difficult to go wrong with an AXI. Think I might follow you with that choice.

In the UK.

[Andy Sayle]

Just got a tracking number from Chris @ritewing, the kits are somewhere between there and here!

[Jake Bullit]

Cool,thanks for the update.

[Andy Sayle]

Just checked, and the box of Mini Drak kits has left Los Angeles.....

So..........
LA to London is about 5400 miles, so if they cruise at 40 MPH they could fly themselves here in five and a half days...
:P
Sorry, the anticipation has muddled my brain cell
:laugh:

Let me know when you have an overall unit cost please  ;)

[Andy Sayle]

Ha ha, imagine the size of battery needed for that flight!

Will do Adam, hopefully it won't be long now, unless they get delayed in customs in the UK.  I'll put the final costs up here :)

Andy

[Andy Sayle]

The shipment has arrived, and departed London!

If this all goes in the face of Murphy's law, it will be delivered on Friday, whilst I am not at work!

[Dillwhacker]

Cool, can't wait.
Let me know as soon as you have a price and I'll cough up some wonga.

[Jake Bullit]

Ditto :D

Where abouts in north Wales are you.do you ever go to the Wirral or Chester?
I have some customers over that way where you might be able to drop it?

[Andy Sayle]

I'm over in Abergele, About 35 min from Chester.  I pass through there every so often too, my sister lives over that way, as do the olds (although I'm arguably an "old" now too!)  I'm sure I'll be able to sort something out :)

I actually keep Fridays free for Aerial Photography work, so I can probably do some kind of roadtrip to drop off kits, especially if people have some interesting landmarks that I can use to gather some stock footage/stills at the same time :)
