Whilst creating a utility to read OSD files and extract information I noticed this on my final frame…
Hadn’t looked at the wing data from Sunday! I was going for it, as knew I had been over 100mph once or twice. With the 30-40mph gusts a new battery went for it…
So claiming the “Custom Wing” record at 193kph/119.925mph…
AR900 Wing, with 4S, and 7x4 prop with a 1500 brother hobby motor (thanks @notveryprettyboy), and thanks for the inspiration @Steviegeek
Two speed records on one day… there a Badge for that @PingSpike @SparkyFPV ?
Don’t want to piss on your bonfire, but…
Nah all good to ge beaten by you and already on way to me are some bits to make that kph equal mph. New frame esc motor etc… I still claim 2 records on a day. Can only beat what’s published at the time
what specs does the atomrc mobula run?
how do you find it to fly (for a novice), seems cost effective (cheap!) and smaller than the arwing pro / std
Go 6s mate
Ain’t stopping at 6…
Its fairly tricky to fly. Not very stable. But you run what you like on it. 5 inch prop, 7 inch etc. Quite tough in a crash. A similar sized wing which is way easier to fly is the z84
that’s another option @robertspark . I’d recommend space in the body, esp. when new!
Also not wanting to piss on your parade but……
No indication of sat count at time of achieving that high speed.
Without at least 8 sats, you can’t rely on an accurate horizontal speed.
Do you have video of that part of the flight with it’s speed and sats on the OSD?
Now you coming to piss on my parade too! Charming

pfft where the sats on that!
Fair point, I’ll dig out the video
@GunjaFPV you already have the “speed freak” title, how many epaulets do you need… don’t want to look like a 3rd world dictator with honorary awards…
I was looking at the AR wing baby too (need to start somewhere… I can see this turning into needing an intervention this hobby!)
And… I will take a few more, and won’t stop till #1
I’m way past that!
Bugger… that’s going to be hard to beat
Didn’t it end up in a bush? At full speed?
You’ll beat it. You have the parts
Congrats on your new Speed Freak badge @Kirky … as well as moving straight into 12th place on the leaderboard
