Looks great, Bryan! Hope to see the real aircraft soon!

[BryanB]

You and me both. Can't wait for this one to get shipped!

Nice buddy!!!!

[BryanB]

Looks like they updated the first delivery date on HH website. I know it's still a couple months out but do we know the status of when the manual will be available?

Here is another video of today flying with the ASH

Pushing slowly but surely the flying envelope (some more to discover for sure)
Quite predictable sailplane in flight, very forgiving!

A little bit of aerobatics in order to better judge the limits of that beautiful bird. To my taste it is a winner, a lot of roll and pitch authority, making it a very versatile machine. Conditions were a bit windy but it didn't affected much in flight, just made the take off shorter

Congrats to the development team, Ali, Craig, Alex and Peter. Exactly the plane I was looking for!

I sure can't wait to get this model!

[BryanB]

You tell'em! I'll second the motion!

I have it in good authority that I should have the first batch models in hand to deliver at the Cumberland Fall Event
I will say no more than that!

Awesome! Thanks for posting!

Just to quench the rumor about tarrifs, there is no price increase on this model, I had word from Ali today that is not the case and it will be sold at the original price of $2699.99!

Ali asked me to post this from RC Groups!

What do you chaps think about this??

I have been working with the factory to try and offer a pre painted spinner and prop? Its been tough because the factory who supplies the props and spinners could not paint and get a close match. Anyway... I finally managed to work it out where I am happy.

So. The question is... Will there be enough of a demand to warrant us going to production? As well as what would people be willing to pay to have matched spinner and prop?
Right now. The Spinner sells for $21 and the Carbon props are $43 a pair.

Let me know your thoughts please...

Regards Ali

P.S. I know I am going to be asked. First shipment of ASH 31's was scheduled to leave the factory on the 24th of this month, but that's been delayed a week due to an issue with freight. The booking is now the 2nd of November. Sorry. I have no way of knowing who will get their kit on the first batch? But rest assured. The second and third order is already in production as we speak.

Can someone that has a 31 post the dimensions of the lettering on the fuse and tail? And possibly the dimensions of the wing panels? Want to get some vinyl ordered from Callie.
