Hey guys,

I just saw on Oxai's website where they have put up the page for Quique's new design for this year's WC, the Ventura. Check it out!

The specs. call for Hacker C50. It does not mention glow so we could assume that is electric only. It is just a guess.

Pretty impressive! All paint, electric powered and it's going to be under 5kg. Wow!

I don't want to hijack this thread... so please PM if you have an answer.

Does anyone know if one can buy those center "cabane" struts that hold the top wing to the fuselage? I don't mean those particular one's that are for the Ventura - but for any 2M size bipe will do.

Long nose makes sense to get equivalent dinamic balance with the glow. This is good sign because means that the plane is really design for electric motor that is much lighter than the glow versions.

These things just keep getting cooler. I guess it is that time for the WC aircraft to begin getting unveiled. Today we got JAS' and QQ's. We've seen Jesky's Spark. Can't wait to see the rest. Looking forward to seeing the Japanese team aircraft.

Not sure how accurate this is, but I got this sent to me saying it was a spy shot taken recently in Japan.

Looks kind of retro to me.
