old website.

All of the designs are available. They are all on a order basis. When the order gets large enough about 10 models it gets built and shipped. Right now they are doing about 2-3 orders a year of about 10 models. They are all a plane by plane basis. Not stocking anything anymore.

  I was just looking at the Oxai web site and the US distributor's site and noticed that the US lists very few of the designs for sale. Any idea why?

  Oxai has never provided a choice of stab. There is one Pinnacle that was built and heavily modified for me.  It had a negative tail on it. But it also had many other mods too. It was my Electric Pinnacle and it was a one of a kind. I wished it was not an electric model. I would likely be flying it still today. It was a really good model, but I didn't like it was Electric.



  All 2007 and later Beryl's had the negative stab. Yes it was possible to buy the later stab and retrofit it to the older Beryl (straight stab models) but it was never an option.





  All the Astral XXc models had the negative stab. You are thinking of a different model. Quality wise, construction material wise and also weight wise it was and is NOT an Oxai model, not even in the same ball park.. Not to mention it wasn't even the same plane. Different wing, stab and the fuse was also slightly different too. 



  I'm pretty close to the Importer of the Oxai planes into the USA and we keep up pretty close on what is available and new with the models.



  The Oxai Bipes are very impressive. I have a pair of them and really like the way they fly.

    Ya, I figured You'd know about it...  I just hadn't seen anything on the list about it yet.
    I'm already looking for my next project, and would like to see some feedback on a few 
    different planes before I decide the direction I'd like to go.  I'm wondering if the buyer
    has a choice on the stab....  like on the Beryll and Astral?
    I really like the way they go together.  Really simple.
    Thanks Troy.  I was just trying to stir the pot a little and see what pops up!

    Rex,



    what would like to know?



    Bare airframe is 2400g Electric only and it will be close on the weight limit. The prototype models all made weight. With various power combos. From the Hacker c50 to the Oxai motor. Similar plug together snap together wing attachment to that of my Adventure and Euphoria Bipes. Both from Oxai. Two bolts are the only fasteners needing tools to attach the wings and "I" struts No flying wires used or needed.



    Wings all glassed and painted. Like all Oxai models.



    Adjustable plug in stab



    Access hatch for the batts when its all put together.



    What else would you like to know?





    Troy
