"Hi Bret, At the moment we are still flight testing and currently carrying 15kg in the nose, we are planning to expanded that out to 30kg along the payload compartment. At this early stage her flight speed envelope is 45 to 120 kts."

"Yes, if you've never gone, it's awesome. It wouldn't hurt to plan two days to walk the show floor, browse the swap meet, etc. etc. One night they had an indoor electric flying competition that was amazing. These guys were doing…"

"We've tossed out the idea ... I have a buddy that lives sort of on the way. We went 2 (3?) years ago and had a great time. I still haven't put the Shrike 40 ARF together that I brought back from that show."

Bret,
Yes we will be selling our UAV's. Our first prototype as seen in the pics has foam core wings with balsa and glass covering. The product units will be full composite/honey comb hollow core construction which we are having CNC molds manufactured for. I am not fully sure how you can see other question because I haven't been on this forum for very long. If you have other question I don't mind answering them.
Cheer,
Simon
