so i was browsing hobbyking and realized that they just released a new plane. its the GlobalHawk UAV w/70mm EDF Kit which is going for 50$ its got 2 meter wing span so it looks like it will glide... i like the fact that the edf is in the back so i wont have to see any prop... what do you guys think? i want to hear ur opinion...

Waaauuwwww!! only 50 USD??? It seems to be a great plane!
Wow! Thanks a lot for the link, Hunt!
This plane looks so amazing, can't wait to read a report or see a video
Im not normally into planes but thats a beautiful plane thats just asking to be an FPV plane!
If I could fly one and have the space for it i'd be all over it!
yes, its a foamy, but nice. can it be disassembled for transportation?
how wide is the front area (for payload purposes)?
I'd love to read a building report
o.d.
That looks awesome! Wonder if the wings could be rigged with magnets like my Easy Star for quick disassembly...
I don't like the idea of EDF in such plane. EDF is very ineffective propulsion system. With pusher conversion it may be very good plane...
I completely agree. External prop wouldn't take too much from aesthetics but would certainly provide more efficient power. I would have to play with the actual model in my hands to see what I could get to fit, but I cannot imagine it would be that hard to do. Who knows when Hobby King will actually have them in stock!
