ARF to replace Steven's Aero G480
Hi everyone,
I unfortunately trashed my Steven's Aero G480 this weekend and I need a replacement. As the weather is really getting good, I'd like to get up and flying soon, so I will be buying an ARF. I really liked the G480--- does anyone know of an ARF that flies similarly? Much appreciated!
A little more info: I will be putting a Typhoon 15 outrunner with 10 KAN 1050 cells in it. I think this gives me somewhere around 130 watts to prop.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Jim

These are a bit smaller, but the Watt-age Crazy 8 (@ hobbypeople.net) and the Airblaster (hobby-lobby) are similar aerobatic 3D planes that are balsa ARF's in the 20 oz range that should work well with the typhoon 15.
