Versa Wing
Material: Depron 5mm
             Packing tape
             Hot Glue
             Black contact paper (Falcon tattoo)
             2 x 9g servos
             Umbrella rib for pushrod

Weight:   330g (whitout motor, esc and lipo)
              500g (with 2200 lipo, without motor and esc)

              so approx 700g RTF.

Now I'm in doubt which combination of motor and prop to use:

Turnigy 2826/6 2200KV  with 6x4 prop  (already have)
Emax  2822     1200KV  with 8x4 or 9x4.7 prop  (already have)
Emax  2812     1534KV  with 7x6 prop     (need to buy combo)
NTM 2836        2700KV  with 6x4 prop   (need to buy motor)

Any suggestions? Other motors? Other combinations?

Maiden this weekend with Turnigy 2826/6 2200KVm 6x4 prop and 2200 3s Lipo + 1300 3s lipo for leds and CG. First flight it was a litlle unstable (CG still back). At top speed she went down real fast.

Second flight with 3 batteries all away to the front! 2200 (for flight)+ 1300 + 380. More up deflection on ailerons for straight flight at top speed. And it flew much, much better with a great, great glide distance. It´s even hard to land or going down because she glides endlessly. Still need a little extra weight to the front for my taste.
Just a great wing!
