Default OSLA&High wing trainer=145MPH!!!!

E-bay does it again. For a little laugh or maybe just a snicker check out Item #3158208370. It appears to be a high wing trainer type plane with a blue LA engine on it that "tops out about 145MPH". Of course since he spent nearly $700 for it it must be a real special version or maybe he just paid the regular price for it and then spent the rest of the $ taking it on-board a full scale plane that "tops out about 145MPH".

That is pretty funny.... Did you notice the gaps on all of the hinged surfaces? At 145 that palne would be in pieces...Hopefully some poor sleb does not buy it..

Tuned pipe..... where?[&:]
Biggest engine that can fit..... I could get a 91 on there.
145mph.... In an uncontrolled dive maybe.[:'(]

I would never trust a description of a plane from a guy who throws his switch in the fuse like that!

almost looks like the os40la engine that i had on my superstar and it seems he changed the description from a hanger9 to -------- and as far as electric starter also see that hes selling the rest of his field box items. and did you see the servos or whats left of the servo tray. and is it just me..but i see the receiver antenna but dont see receiver

the top speed is down to 72mph.
you will have to go to ebay and enter the item number in the search box, RCU doesn't allow links to eBay.

I think the guy who posted it is missing a few screws himself.
