Ne plus ultra

My final build...the result of nearly a year in research with the goal of creating the ultimate long range cruiser. It combines the endurance and lifting power of a full size quad with the speed and agility of a mini.

Nice idea!! So whats the specs? Range? Flight time?

Unfortunately this machine flew away last week because of a stupid mistake I made with the fail-safe and a homemade antenna, so I never had the opportunity to fully test it. The range is probably around 3-5miles.
I did fly it around for 20min with the 3300 and it was measured at 76mph with a radar gun. It would be quite a bit faster on 5s.
