Comments apprciated for new site and product

Sep 26, 2005 10 Replies

I just finished putting up a site for a rather special aircraft. I think quite a few of you may like such a machine...



I would appreciate any feedback good or bad (Syntax, grammar, content, product, pricing , flame etc...)



Thank you all in advance.

Alix, the one thing I noticed is there is no contact information like

Name of Company address city state (prov) phone fax

Also did not see shipping costs along with handeling charges. You ma want to make your images smaller or thumbnails and cut down on "Th Vendetta ---" or use a smaller size font. You should also try to ge the price on top or up front

Sounds rather over-hyped...

Ed,

I used the geared combo with the Feigao motor and GWS D gearbox, WAY too much power (2:1 P/W). But that is the way I like it. I fly with 3 cell

1050maH Hirate, Total up was 14.5 oz

Thanks you all for the comments.

I have flown nearly ALL the foamies. Of course I am biased. This is the absolute best slow flyer I have flown.

You launch it, keep low power and it sits there, Ultra stable , desesperately SLOW and sits there waiting for an input. You throttle up and Hell breaks loose... You don't even have to change to Hi rate

I did forget: You initiate Knife edge and It stays there with nearly no Rudder input _ perfectly balanced side area_ Lots of it. (You have to push down elevator though)

Keep them coming...

Hi Alix, Looks like you have something there :) Music and flight a perfect match - nice choice. I'd like to see some pics of the kit contents and a rough estimate of the building time. What engine/battery combination did you use for the demo? Just to convince the skeptics some indoor flying shots would be worthwhile. Maybe a formation shot with a UFO . I have at least a dozen birds in the waiting to build section but I'm thinking of adding another. 41in., 500 inI just finished putting up a site for a rather special aircraft.

One small point - do think about us poor buggers who live in the bush or are too poor to have broadband - I would have liked to view the movie, but 30 megs at

19kb makes it a lifetime project to do the download

PS: nice loook> Ed,

Thanks a lot! I appreciate you guys taking the time and effort to answer. Too often we get views from people that are too close to us and are afraid to offend us. Not good if you want to attract potential customers.

I be make making a few mods in the next few days. Keep them coming...

I will make more effort for the low speed connections guys. But...

Alix, your getting there. I know it takes time to make a webpage th

looks great and exciting. I reworked your discription and took ou some of the pork. Remember your writing an ad not a billboard. Mos people viewing the net on a browser look as far as the first page an scrolling just add to there frustration. You added the contac information which is good along with the shipping. Just fo suggestions you may want to take an image into PhotoShop and add th contact info and paypal information. This does not have to be linke yet just use it as a logo. Bring the price up to just below the log with something like "Introductory price of only $64 US!" Make thi in bold and use it as a leader and leave the font size as is. Cut dow the size of the font you are using for the discription this will hel reduce the size of the page. you may wish to re-size the images an put them in a table like 3 across and two down or more across.

These are only my suggestions so take them for what it is worth bu your starting to look good and the page is coming togeather.

The Vendetta was designed to go where the IFO left off and wher foamies can't. The graceful modern and nostalgic shapes were generated for a tough biplane an extreme indoor aerobatics. The exercise turned out to be a multipurpose high performance Indoor-Outdoo parkflyer. The shape is our view of what a modern Beech Aircraft Staggerwing would look like equipped with turboprop.

The Vendetta is an airplane with lighter wing loading than the bes foamies yet with the same strenght as the legendary IFO. Combining a mixture of three of the highes strength to weight ratio materials: Ripstop, Balsa and Carbon fiber. It is designed to survive close encounters wit indoor walls, floors or the occasional foamy without a scratch! A generous side area for walkin speed Knife Edge, along with generous rudder area. It will flat spin and flat turn on a whim! The model ca be flown by expert pilots that would like to develop their rudder skills and novices with previous building an flying experience. The top wing position allows for unprecedented stall resistance and unbelievably stabl Harrier.

The cleanness of the airframe (no servos, batteries or receivers ar sticking out) plus the large wingspan and wing area even allows the aircraft to catch thermals..
