Default RE: PHOENIX MODELS F-20 TIGERSHARK ?

I've got one of these which is only partially assembled , one of the other guys on here,crasharama built one and flew it with a jett50, but on his fourth flight the elevator control horn sheared off..sort of turned it into a lawn dart..luckily he mentioned this before I got to build mine so now I'm just waiting on some Robart horns..other than that it seems to be fairly good quality although I cant say much about the flight envelope yet!!! unfortunate side, there is no provision for retracts...sure would be sweet to clean this bird up a bit.the only other hiccup is the engine mount that come out on our versions is a bit small..only measures 30mm i think thats about 1 and 1/16 " so a bit small for a .46 upward size engine but who knows maybe they fixed that since its been released in the States.
