This is my LOS Maiden Flight with the super fun Sonic Modell Carbon Fiber Racing Wing. This is a great size for an FPV Wing at 1030m. It is versatile and I am still in awe of how well it flew. It made me happy inside to fly it and it was pure joy to carve up the sky with it at 7AM!

The battery I used was my 3S 2200 mAh Enfan lipo and I had PLENTY of throttle to spare as I flew it around. It also had 69% of this charge left after 6 minutes of mixed throttle flight.

This is where I got the Enfan 3S battery: https://goo.gl/hhwYkv

I love how it can fly on 3S 2200 or 4S 2200 lipo battery, but I will say that 4S will be scary fast!

Here are my review notes for this Sonic Modell CF Racing Wing:

Pros:
- Its size is just about perfect
- The price makes it a great value
- It is very fast as I didn't even give it full throttle the entire flight
- The wide flight envelope makes it a fun flyer
- It has a nice glide slope
- This wing was designed to carry FPV gear
- The battery efficiency is exceptional
- It looks amazing carving up the sky

Cons:
- I wish it had a little room for more FPV gear as any install will be a fairly tight fit.
