Enjoy the pics, videos should follow next weekend.

Good looking build sir!!! That's alot of power for a 33" mono, take a clean pair of shorts to the pond with you, :w00t: ;) she's going to rip!!!

Since your control has to go back to Castle to have a wire soldered back on:eek:, I would ask them to add some caps to it.:cool:
Looking forward to the vid.
Good luck with her!!

Thanks for the compliments guys. Doug thats a good idea.........I'm glad you thought of that (adding caps) :w00t:. I know its a lot of power but I can always use the added weight of the batts for stability and cog adjustment. Peter I know everything you do is your way. Everyone knows you add your own personal touch. The Sniper is looking wonderful.:buttrock:

That thing will definately be a rocket. I have a df33 with a 1515 1y on 4s2p and it does low 50s. What speeds do you expect to see ? Nice Build

No kidding on the power. I would suggest you may wish to look at the rudder setback and increase the length or shorten the strut. My 4 Canadian cents. Very nice build

Thanks Douggie I will get an extension milled for the rudder bracket to get the leading edge in line with the drive dog. If all is successful I will keep as is, if not I will start with .75" cut off the stinger and see how she goes then.

knpc: I have no idea what to expect :olleyes: but I am hoping for 60+/-

Wow thats a lot of power for a DF and very clean built, it will fly for sure :buttrock: mine did with a kb45XL8 on 6s and 42x55 grimmracer 52,9 mph and did not need trimmflaps .
