| Markus,
Very impressive concept Mate! Overall, I really like it. Just a few comments/questions;
You say you have an 11:0 ratio. Is that with a 100t main and 9t pinion? If so, I think you are going to get a lot of main gear wear. MA are just coming out with 111t main gears (for their Bandit 50) and these would be better with a 10t pinion imop.
Also, it does not look like you have much room to shift the Actro motor for different ratio's.
I also notice that your tail rotors are on the right side (wrong side for X-cell's). I really do not know if this makes any difference or not. It looks like an easy switch in any case.
I like your canopy except for it's fat/low bottom (a bit like the Razor). You probably did this to fit your Rx Lipo packs, but these could be moved elsewhere and the bottom streamlined up a bit. It would be great if you could mod an Ion-x canopy to fit. These are very light, and good looking canopies imop. You probably would need to cut out a bit on top to clear the motor.
Again, I really like your concept and thanks for sharing this with all of us. Well done, and I look forward to your flight reports.
Cheers,
Tom C
