That's a decent looking plane and doesn't look quite like a patriot. Doesn't look fast enough for me though.

What's the deal.....why are there a ton of planes to choose from in every class, whether it be aerobatic, warbirds, pattern, etc, but there's not a lot of prop jet planes to choose from. There needs to be a company that developes some prop jets with real jet like looks and flying similar to the juno or sportsman aviation f-20's. I want a slick, pointy nosed, stream lined (with landing gear) ARF prop jet that will fit a hot .46 or .50 motor with speeds well over 100mph. Is this asking too much?!

If you move the canopy up a bit and cut the wings down, it would look similar to an Ultra Sport. for a $100 it would be worth the effort

Does look more like a Kougar/Kobra but a little Patriotish... 7.8 lbs?

I like it but I will wait for one of you guys to buy it and review

I would make it 48" span-

Just be leery of Raidentech, I have heard (read in RCU) of some trouble with them not shipping paid for items and people unable to get in contact with them.
