Default tower hobby razor 3-d

just bought a tower razor 3-d plane. being as i like simple planes and not expensive i thought i would pass it along. not a bad plane for 100.00 flies real good on my .46 os fx engine. lands easy, will hover, hold a knife edge with alot of rudder........easy assembly, good hardware, everything fits very well and almost no balance weight needed. just move the battery pack foward about an inch. the cg is located 5 1/8 in from the leading edge of the wing [next to the fuse\ the drawing shows it measured out near the end of the wing. no way guys. it would be 1/2 from the air, out there. what a nice plane for the money and is fast too..................have fun..........RON

You had better luck than me. Mine has a very poor fit in the wing saddle. They provided some foam tape to fill the gap. Both ailerons are badly warped.

Haven't finished it yet. Very disappointed.

sorry to here that. i would ask for new ones in place of the warped ones. yes the wing saddle has to be taped, but no big deal. once you tighten her down thats it. i really fly the heck of mine and enjoy the good performance of the plane. i fly at valley fordge club. stop up some time............ask for RON WILLIAMS.

I have one and for $100 it's a deal. I put a S/K 50 w/Perry Carb and Bisson style muffler on mine. Not sure I would rate it "3-D" but certainly a great sport model.
