If you are interested in yet another build thread, this one is for a Wildman Darkstar Extreme than I hope to fly it's first flight at the Tripoli Vegas Oktoberfest launch (which is actually in October, unlike the beer fest in Germany) on a L900 Dark Matter. I've also requested the help of two TAPs *in case* I'd like to try for that L3 afterwards, perhaps the Springfest 2014 launch.
The gallery link with all of the pictures and notes can be found here.
So far, the motor mount is in and the first fin went on today. This Darkstar will be built mostly stock with the following 'extras': GLR Fireball for the lower recovery harness, an SCP thrust plate (red, of course) and SCP airfoil 10/10 rail buttons. i am still deciding what electronics to put into it; will put in a beta Maras54 Lite if ready along with a Raven2 in a Power Perch, but may have to go with another altimeter if the Marsa54L isn't ready yet.
