It is nice to see a big brother hanging out with his little brother.

A.J. Jaffe · 11-09-2009, 09:24 PM

hows the manual Brian? is it ready as well?
A.J.

Buzzin Brian · 11-10-2009, 06:32 PM

The assembly portion of the manual is pretty much complete. I just need to button up a few details and it will be complete. (Pushrod measurments, things like that) All that is needed to complete the manual 100% is the parts replacement pages. As soon as Curtis returns we will iron out these last details and it will be done. And it looks verry nice! I think you are going to like it!

A.J. Jaffe · 11-10-2009, 07:19 PM

alex 911 · 11-11-2009, 11:57 AM

I am more than ready for it!!!!!!!!

helivig · 11-11-2009, 04:31 PM

We finished putting the Production Sample Rave ENV together last night. I then packed it up in my travel case, along with the original sample. They are now both on the way back home for some intense flight testing. Hopefully no tree trimming.

Not looking forward to the 23 hours of traveling, but I am looking forward to some ENV flying!

P.S. we just got in a shipment of the Little Rave cases, so they should be in the US in a week or so.

Anthony Jager · 11-11-2009, 08:28 PM

Man! I can't wait, the Rave is the best looking machine out there. Great job Brian. I got people a.sking me every weekend at the field when it coming.

sparx · 11-11-2009, 08:56 PM

Where is that drooling smiley when you need it.

I still believe in Santa, think he might bring me one!

Nice kit Curtis, can't wait to see them in action.

A.J. Jaffe · 11-11-2009, 10:25 PM

Curtis is the boom going to remain silver?

Anthony Jager · 11-12-2009, 07:27 AM

rave looked killer at mt. pleasant. if you think the it looks good in the pics, it looks even better in person. Im already planning out my paint scheme

Buzzin Brian · 11-12-2009, 10:59 AM

A.J.

The boom will be black in the kit. That is just a production sample that they likely didn't have time to anodize black before Curtis left. I know he got it shortly before he had to pack up to leave. Hence the time constraint.

sparx · 11-12-2009, 12:06 PM

I kind of like the way it looks with the silver boom. Black seems to "disappear" into the frame. With it being silver, it stands out.

A.J. Jaffe · 11-12-2009, 04:07 PM

Brian,
same with the head pieces? I seem to recall him mentioning at IRCHA that they would be black like the little Rave.
A.J.

Jim Robertson · 11-12-2009, 05:48 PM

Looking good Curtis! I've cleared the work bench and tools are laid out.

Jim....

Mike Hrischuk · 11-13-2009, 04:51 AM

Can't read the scale. What's it weigh?

Looks great!

helivig · 11-13-2009, 07:09 AM

4.42KG, about 9 3/4 lbs.
