Even if I was able to sell it, I'd need another $2k for extra equipment and another $2-5K for a trailer! I like my marriage right now and would prefer to keep it that way!

Word is that it was also the lightest plane out there, or at least among the lightest. I believe it was 37 pounds with cannisters, a 3-blade CF prop, and the heavier 3W!

Hey Nick,
I'm with you If I got rid of my 35% 260 I would still need a bucket load of money. And I am having way too much fun with the 35%er I have 300 flights on my first 260
And the other one is sitting all together waiting for a new DA-100. But I sher would like the 42% it would be swwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttt.

Carl, I took mine down to Tucson last week and got to experience flying in actual air!! The BME110 actually managed to yank it out of a hover and high-alpha was actually easier to do! Unless I win a lotto or I get sponsored by my dad, who seems to be looking for a place to dump some cash, I'll be stuck on 35%ers.
Last word on the 42% arrival was mid January.
