Default funtana 40 3/10/06 5:32 p.m.

lost my funtana in dive recovery today it was sad[] ok same plane talked about in 3d upgrade.. to start with i got more flight time in 3 weeks than alot would i fly about 4 to 5 hours a day with this and others. maybe about 50 flights on the funtana some did not think this thing would hover on the magnum 704 stroke but it did and im lookin for something (3d) to move this motor to any advice on that .. i had trouble with the f40 from the getgo any time you applied back pressure in a turn the left wing would drop no matter witch way the turn like i said on the other post (got this plane pre built )someone said this was a tip stall but im not sure i had never seen this before .. im not saying this is a bad arf just wonder if something in the assembly of this bird went worng ...and were do i go next with this magnum 70 thanks for any help..

That looks exactly like my Funtana

Get a profile Katana if you like the looks of the Funtana. You'll love the way it flys. I think we have a few left in stock, check out the website.

Mine snapped out hard during transition from inverted elevator to hover at about 6 feet up, so the area the wreckage was in was smaller. It only took me about 10 minutes to pick up the mess. I never thought a plane could be soo fragile..[X(]

Yeah, don't get the Katana 70....Get the Kat 40 V-2. You'll be about 4.5 pounds with more wing area than the Funtana. The Bad Boy is also a great plane, but we are backordered on them.

yeah its a pretty easy to assemble plane, you can have it ready to fly in a couple of hours... very good plane to practice 3D and even some precision flying

It's $159 there is a typo on the site. I'll get it fixed. When you order, it'll only charge you $159.

Just get ready to have some fun.....All your gear will drop right into it. When you kill your foamys, make sure to revisit the site and pick up a STIFFY.
