RE: Model aero polaris
There is a [link=http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=922465&highlight=polaris]huge thread about the Polaris on RC Groups[/link]. The Polaris is a Steve Shumate design, so the thread began as Steve's step-by-step build thread. When Model Aero started making the kits, the thread expanded to include info on the kit as well.

RE: Model aero polaris
Thanks for jumping in Jeff.
r/cmark42, the Polaris is no hangar queen! It is my favorite foamy to fly bar none. I like it because you can fly off water, grass, and snow and actually take off, land, do touch and goes and such. Not many foamies can do that!
Here's some onboard video I shot from the Polaris:
