The Prime RES III is a re-designed version of the Prime RES II model.

The kit is available as a V-Tail or a Cross-Tail (X-Tail)

The new version has two spoilers, a re-designed fuselage with built in firewall for motor installation, and a completely new wing design, which reduced all up weight and provides better flight characteristics. The wing is a continuous ellipse throughout its span which has provided the model with good stability and forgiving handling during flight.
The model is designed to be an all-round model for weather conditions from low thermals to strong winds. The model has been re-designed and optimized to the last detail and it all came together perfectly. Most importantly, when flying and competing, adjustments can be made quickly in the field.
All parts are laser-cut from carefully selected, high quality balsa and light plywood.
Due to its aerodynamic design and excellent performance, it is very stable and is a joy to fly.

Build Manual

I highly recommend perusing the excellent build manual V-Tail  OR build manual X-Tail

The model is designed and produced for competitions according to FAI F5L RES competition rules.

Compared to the previous version, the new model has several improvements and features, such as:

  • The wing halves now connect on the sides of the fuselage
  • Dihedral in the middle of each wing section for better stability
  • A built in firewall for motor installation
  • A new carbon tail boom which is longer than the previous version
  • The canopy now has a magnetic closure for easier and faster closing - as well as the hatch cover on the bottom of the fuselage

Kit includes:

  • Detailed plans sheets, printed in color
  • Detailed building manual with step-by-step instructions and images - download .pdf
  • CNC cut jigs from styrofoam (underside of wings) for easier wing gluing
  • Laser cut ribs and all other required parts
  • Templates for aligning angled ribs for gluing
  • Carbon tail boom and carbon tube for main spar
  • Carbon wing joiner
  • Steel wing joiner for use with ballast
  • Rudder horns and the various fasteners needed for completion
  • Neodymium magnets for the canopy hatch and spoilers
  • Pushrod cables and hardware for connecting control surfaces
  • Various carbon parts and accessories needed for model completion

Additional details for each segment of the model can be found below.

Wings:

To achieve better stability the wing was designed with multiple segments. The wing is constructed in two pieces which are connected to the fuselage in the middle.
The wing center panel, mid panel and tip panels all have dihedral for improved stability.

The wing is a continuous ellipse throughout its span which has provided the model with good stability and forgiving handling during flight
The wings are joined with either carbon or steel joiners (ballast) and incorporate pre-sized pins so that everything fits together perfectly.

To ensure strong connections that will transfer loads from the mid panels of the wing into the center panel, angled carbon joiners are used to connect the wing components together.
The kits also includes a carbon tube which is used as main-spar. It is reinforced with kevlar where wing segments are connected.
You also get a CNC cut styrofoam jig for easier wing alignment and glueing.

The main construction of the wings is built with full balsa ribs, plywood for trailing edges and reinforcements are used where needed. Composite materials are used for leading edges and main-spars according to FAI F3 RES rules.
All parts are laser cut and fit together perfectly. There is minimum rework needed, you only have to assemble everything and bond according to the manual.
The center panel design incorporates two separate spoilers with built-in magnets that help perfectly close the spoilers when not activated.

Fuselage:

The fuselage has a nice aerodynamic shape with smooth transitions. Again, all parts are laser cut out of balsa and light plywood.
The fuselage is reinforced in strategic areas with a selection of materials which provide improved strength and stiffness.

The fuselage is adapted for the F5L version, which means it has a built-in firewall on which a 30 mm diameter spinner is mounted.

The canopy is designed in a way that there is enough space to easily install and remove the battery.
To facilitate and optimize the installation of components in the fuselage, we made two canopies. One on the upper side in which the motor, ESC, batteries and receiver are installed, and the other is a hatch on the bottom side under the center of gravity of the model in which the servo motors are installed.
The canopy and hatch are held on with magnets.

The tapered carbon tail-boom is made from several carbon types. The materials are strategically oriented, so the boom has maximum strength and minimum weight.
The tail-boom is predrilled for mounting the rudder/elevator which are disigned using carbon rods as the support mechanism.

Tail:

The tail is also designed to have excellent aerodynamics. It is a construction of laser cut balsa components.
If desired, there is an option to reinforce the elevator/rudder with carbon rectangular rod for stiffness.

The Rudder / elevator has pre-prepared carbon pins which are inserted into drilled tail-boom and is easily mounted to the fuselage.

The carbon tail boom has predrilled holes for mounting the rudder / elevator which contain carbon rods.
The rudder and elevator are detachable for their protection and ease of transport.

REALLY CUTE SHOE BUT CUT WAY TOO SMALL!
Size: 8, Color: Black Patent
I received the black patent leather shoes today and they are so cute! Sadly I need to return them because they are cut way too small. I normally wear a 7.5 or 8 on dress shoes so I ordered the 8. They are so tight across the top that it's uncomfortable as soon as I put them on. They are smaller than a normal size 8 dress shoe. The big toe area is extremely uncomfortable because it doesn't allow any room for it at all, so my big toe just presses against the side and end of the shoe without even walking in them. I have very narrow feet and these still are too small for me. So I am returning them and I already ordered a 8.5 W and hope that will fit much better. The patent leather is very cute and adds just enough dressy that I can wear them with slacks or my Capri jeans. I like the slip on and the cushion foot bed because it feels soft.

Love these flats!
Size: 9 Wide, Color: Black White Faux Snake Skin, Size: 9 Wide, Color: Black White Faux Snake Skin
One of my favorite pair of flats! I’ve had these for several years and they are still comfortable, in good shape and really add a little spice to my outfits. I can wear these all day and not have any foot pain or discomfort as a result. The quality is good, fit is perfect and I tend to have difficulty with shoes due to bunions. Love these!!
