RE: JET LEGEND VIPER BUILD THREAD

RE: JET LEGEND VIPER BUILD THREAD
Do you think the landing gear is suitable/robust enough for grass field operation.I know they`re trailing link but whats the quality like?With the T12 Turbine are you adding any nose weight? I was thinking a Jet Munts VT80 would be a good choice of turbine but is over a pound lighter than the T12.Would not want to start adding weight at the back![:o] This Jet is on my short list now for 2013 model[:D]

I was talking about the Velox G2 which apparently now comes with the L39 Landing gear.Mike,can you get a picture uploaded as I can`t see how the L39 mains would fit the wheel well cut outs?

Mike, How do the L39 mains fit in the wheel wells on the Velox G2 ? Any modifications? Can you post a picture on the underside showing the gear fitted? Cheers Steve

Nice although the wing tip lens cover could have been moulded alittle better to blend in with the winglet.Looks as though its just squared off ?

Mike, Do you think the Jet Munts VT80 would be ok for this Airframe?26lb dry weight seems heavy for a 72" span Viper or is this using a larger engine/smoke system etc?

RE: 4/15/2012 ㊣ Happy flight with my jetlegend viper
Looks like a nice sports Jet but a blue cockpit tub? Surely grey/black would look better. There is also an option for a tinted brown canopy,a smoked grey canopy option would be nicer.I`m going to take a closer look at this model at JET POWER this year.
