Eastwind Designs STINGER is a fully aerobatic model designed for standard speed400 direct drive systems. It's a 14 ounce, 30 inch span speedster that's very agile and fast on eight 1100mah HECELLS and an APC 4.7 by 4.7 prop.

Drop in a speed400 sized brushless and this little ship turns into a rocket! Dive down on the field for a low pass and it'll flash by at 160 kilometres per hour powered by a hacker B20 15L. It's almost as fast with a Mini AC1215 in the nose.

Flight times of almost 7 minutes are routine with a standard speed 400 and the 1100mah cells. With the brushless 5 minutes are possible with throttle restraint, but frankly this ship grooves so nicely it's hard to pull the throttle back!

NOTE: The Stinger can be flown comfortably in a suitable park setting with a standard speed400 installed, but is far too fast for such a setting when flown with the brushless setup. Brushless power with this airplane should only be used at a suitable club field where there are wide open spaces. It's small and covers a large area in a very short time!
