Here is my new Mini-IFO. It is two inches longer then the standard Mini and has a working rudder. I am using 3 cell Kolkam 145 pack, GFS speed control, GWS 'A' drive w/9x7 prop and GWS servos and receiver. All up to weight is 4.1oz(w/3cell 145's). The covering was a little tighter until I walked with it in the 20mph wind today. I was hovering it in my basement last night and will fly it tonight at the gym.
1/8/03- Flight Report- It flew great. I was able to do stall turns with the rudder. I like the way it flies with the 145's better then the 560's. It just floats around. My original Mini took a lot of down elevator during a roll. This one does not need any down at all. Hovering was also a lot easier with the rudder. You can hover a foot off the ground and then go straight up.
