I received the Super Timber on June 5, took about 3 hours to assemble and program, and flew it that evening. This flight is a few days later on June 8. It was taken at the annual Floaty Flyers event at a club east of Indianapolis.
If you like the Timber EVO you will really like the Super version!
The flight video was made with my new GoPro Hero 12 that replaced my old v.5. Basement video was made on my iPhone 14 Pro.
Enjoy!
Hits:
The battery tray, 6s power, 100 amp Avian Smart ESC
Sufficient airflow to keep ESC from overheating
Quick assembly and breakdown - clip on tail and wings
Sturdy landing gear
Sturdy prop mount
Reinforced battery hatch, battery compartment, and nose cone
Wing tube storage in the fuselage
CG balance point easy to remember, no marking required
Flies like a Timber!
Misses:
Right wing and elevator surfaces required manual centering
Tires are VERY bouncy on a hard-surface runway
