Nice. I have this kit still in it's unopened box. Have had it for over one year now. After seeing how nice it flew with the two motors, I am tempted to make a FPV plane. I have been saving it, to try building a VTOL plane out of its large wing size.
nice, and yes it flys very nice if you ask me, specially in the twin motor configuration, not to mention its easier and safer to hand launch like this, thanks for commenting, cheers
Thanks for stopping by, and yes i can try to upload them to Thingiverse, give me a few days, im currentliy swamped with work....i get back to you when i uploaded them, blue skys
I mounted retracts in the wings, with the wheels swinging inboard and housed in the fuselage. Dispensed with the props and mounted a 70mm EDF in the rear compartment......because if it looks like a jet, it shouldn't have propellers 😊
Nice idea, i was actually thinkiing about edfs aswell but then went back to props for the longer flighttime....and how does the gear work?....i was worried that the wing might be a bit to thin for that, thats why i went with the fuselage idea...thanks for stopping by
I mounted the retracts onto 2mm plywood [4ply 80x80mm] and put a small bearer underneath with Rivnuts to bolt them on. The wing is about 20mm thick so just enough room for the retract housing. Similar construction for the steerable nosewheel. They work extremely well, with the mains about 50mm behind the CG. With my very average piloting skills, I can assure you they get a punishing, having replaced the struts several times, without any detriment to the mounting plates. I'll probably put an 80mm on the next one, as it's a bit sluggish on takeoff, with the extra weight and a 4S 4000. Nice to see someone on the other side of the globe had a similar idea for the retracts. There's lots of room inside the middle bay for the wheels and a 100A ESC. Happy flying ...
Hi. Can you share with me information about a dimensions of that two motors. I have a one motor on a plane would try two,but not sure witch motor to buy and propeler, because its no information anywhere. I know that guys will say, witch one will fit, but maybe a advice?? Thanks
hi there, and i actually went the easy way, i baught the motor-kit for the sonic-modell-binary which is a similar size modell that is also sold on banggood. I post a link below so you can take a look at it if you are interrested, but basicly they are 2212 1100kv motors combined with 40A esc`s and fitting 3-bladed props (the two motors/props are also counter-rotating so no torque effects on the model). They work good on 4s and provide easily enough thrust and reasonable speed for the AGGRESSOR which is ideal for my kind of flying, i hope that helps, and thanks for checking out my video, cheers. sonic model binary motor combo www.banggood.com/Sonicmodell-2212-KV1100-Brushless-Motor-and-40A-ESC-and-9g-Servo-and-8045-Propeller-Power-System-Combo-For-Binary-RC-Airplane-p-1481183.html?cur_warehouse=CN&rmmds=detail-top-buytogether
Thank you for your comment, and the CoG is actually moulded into the underside of the wings - i went with that and it works very well as you saw in the video. And about deflection, mine flys level with like half a mm of uptrimm, so not a lot, cheers
I see you have created a masterpiece my friend. When I first seen this aircraft I thought about a X-Wing fighter, get another wing and mount wings in angle to each other with working alis on all four wings....And maybe build an EDF setup for it. Just thinking 👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻
Nice gear mod, I use the Hobby eagle A3L gyro and it’s a good gyro in both Jets and warbirds, the forward swept wings on this model reminds of the Romulan space ship in Star Trek, haven’t seen any videos from you in a while, good to see you back in the game my friend ✌️👍✈️
Thanks man, and yes, much safer than just hand launching this thing, and i have one of those gyro lying around for some time now, thought this might be the right project to test it. And you are right got a bit sidetracked lately, plus the weather here was super bad for soooo long, must be a new record on bad weather here in germany...but now i have a few new and old projects goin forward, i hope i find the time to do more videos about those too, stay safe, cheers
Thanks, and 3D printing is a great tool for guys in the hobby, used them for a while but mostly for smaler parts, light housings, gun details or ordanace and such. This is perhaps the first time i did a bigger project with more technical 3D printed parts...thanks for stopping by, cheers :)

Great work my friend. I have tried this plane with two motors and no way to control the plane. Big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert
greetings from germany, and thanks for stopping by guys, glad you enjoyed the video, cheers :)
Very cool mod! Any chance you can share the 3D print file for the retract pods?

@@WarbirdFan66 thanks for a quick response.
I like that landing gear mod on yours.
I Will consider doing the same.
Good job you done there 👏👍🏴
Thank you, glad you enjoyed my little rework video of the Aggressor, and thanks for watching, cheers.
Great video.
May I know where would be the correct CG point? Also, shall it requires any positive/negative degrees for the deflection?

Thank you, and yes, this thing does have a very unusual shape, liked it right from the start, but kind of hard to come by these days, cheers
geiles teil ! 👍👍👍👍
danke man, and danke fürs reinschauen, cheers :)
