    Finally got the hpi atv body I ordered back in november..

    Got it cut out, trimmed, holes drilled and painted last night, got it mounted up today. Ended up making some 2" tall front body mounts, there not pretty but they will work.. Its made for a savage xl but I think it looks more scale on my 2wd stampede, I like how it came out. :D

    Here's a clip my roommate edited together with footage from an rc power glider of his. I have an identical plane, but no goPro... Today we took it up without the goPro on it and got it in a thermal for about an hour without touching the power. It was a lot of fun.

    http://youtu.be/Ci9xQWwU6Fo

    Back home I have two more gliders, one of them has a 3m wingspan which i use for slope soaring. Scale dg-1000, catapult launch. Wicked fun!
