The Brushless X-22 is a 22 inch wing designed for speed! It has a thin leading edge that allows it to attain a higher air speed than normal airfoils with the same power setup (see kit contents). The kit contains a 24 gm 3000kv CD Rom motor with a Slofly aluminum tube motor mount, a prop saver, and an APC 4.1x4.1 prop. 3-cell, 800-1000mAh lithium polymer battery packs are recommended. An 18-20 amp ESC is also recommended. The shaft diameter is 3mm.

This wing is quite fast, depending on the power setup. Speeds over 100 mph with other motors have been reported. It has very fast axial rolls and tight loops. Very stable at all speeds, it can be flown in an area the size of a baseball field. It is small enough to be easily carried about or stored away.

The kit is complete with all parts pre-cut and ready to assemble. The cores are CNC precision cut EPP foam. Other parts include coroplast wingtips, balsa elevons, a five-ply motor mount, DuBro control horns, wire pushrods, Velcro strips, zip ties, strapping and covering tapes, and assembly directions.


The Original (Brushed) X-22:
This kit includes a Johnson 250 electric motor, 2 4 x 4 props, and 2 prop adapters for power. The kit also contains all other parts necessary to build the wing.
 
With the J-250 motor, we have seen the Brushed X-22 get up to 70 mph (reported by fliers). But it also handles well at low speeds and provides well-controlled, "catchable" landings. It is aerobatic from mid to high speeds, performing loop after loop and very fast rolls (5 to 6/sec). It is easy to launch by tossing it into a glide and then hitting the power. It can be flown in winds of 10 to 15 mph (we have flown it in higher winds at times).
