Default 1st RC Auction..

Wasnt planning on buying anything but ended up with this float plane for $80
.61 OS max FX.. what kind of exhast is that?
I'll replace the radio with 2.4..

Nice step up from the seawind EP I was flying of the pond..
alot heavier, should have plenty of power..the prop is in front of the ailerons. unlike the seawind..

seems like a good deal... Noone else wanted it

The muffler is a Macs Muffler. The dont add much power but save alot of weight.

I agree a wonderful buy but an unfortunate sign of the economic times sigh. I have only flown a few other single hull ships but not that one but believe it just may be a great one. Do make sure there is a few degrees of up thrust incorporated the rigging.

That pipe is a Macs muffler (not a tuned pipe).

Enjoy[8D]

The motor and muffler are worth your purchase price. I like the plane too ! The nice thing 'bout those Mac's mufflers is no loose parts to fall off!
