Kin, I've pretty interested in the sanwa 94761z servos. But i'm staying in singapore. Do you ship to singapore? If yes how much would it cost to ship 2 sanwa 94761z servos over?? Thanks

Also do you sell any molded gliders that is 1.5m to 2m wingspan? (something like the banana?)

8) 8)

That was my Ceres. 4x.xx seconds was not really fast.

In the wind condition like that day, other good pilots could fly even faster.

Hi Ah Kin,

I just hardly saved up some money to buy servos and decided to build my FR3 now. Can you also get me six 94761 servos? cheap and reliable, please!

Thanks

Stanley

FR3 is Freestyler 3. It is not extreme fast in strong wind but easy to control. Unfortunately, it is very very expensive and very very long production time!

I think Skorpion is faster:

FR3 stands for Freeestyler III which is from Andrew Herrig's design in TUDM

Honestly, there is no simple way to compare speeds of various F3F gilders.
Perhaps, FR3 is slower than Ceres or Predator.
But under a capable pilot's hand, it can also win.

Here is a movie of FR3
