Description
XLR-4 Super Light Stretch X Racer
XLR-4 Super Light (XLR-4SL) is a 4" stretch X racing frame. If you have been following the design of the XLR series, starting with the original XLR-4, you may be aware that lightness was always a goal for the design. While the original XLR-4 was designed to use 1806 sized motors and also incorporated replaceable arms, XLR-4SL follows the same approach as the it's smaller 3" brother, the XLR-3. In fact the XLR-4SL is merely an XLR-3 with a larger footprint baseplate to allow for the use of 4" props. All other parts at his point are shared with XLR-3. This setup allows you to use powerful 1407 size motors to create an even lighter XLR-4 setup! In fact the XLR-4SL frame is only ~4g heavier than the XLR-3, and 10g lighter than the original XLR-4. Combined with lighter motors, this setup should really rip.
BETA Test Group Limited Opportunity:
In an effort to offer new designs quicker, I am trying out this new BETA process. BETA designs are ones which I feel are mature enough for sale and should meet most of my standards, but may eventually have minor tweaks to the final version. In this case since XLR-4SL is based mostly on XLR-3 which has been tested pretty well, and I feel this design should work and perform well. That being said BETA kits are offered at a slightly lower price point to allow for those early adopters who don't mind making their own tweaks if necessary and providing feedback on their experience. BETA kit ordering will only be available for a short time, and will close once I feel a design is sufficiently tested and any changes that need to be made are incorporated (which should hopefully be minimal).
