That's a good looking plane. Hate I missed it at the Lowe's fly-in on 4/12. Please let me know when you are going to take it up again.

I almost bought a (fullscale) V-tail back in '96 or '97. If I could have gotten my medical, I would be burning some of the high dollar av-gas now.

Both have OS 1.20's. One w/ a pump and one w/o. No difference flightwise. 15X7 three blade props on both now. Both covered in Monokote. 15.5 and 16lbs. each. Very realistic in flight. The V-tail has a nice waggle if turns are not coordinated. I'll give more info later, just ask.

This is disappointing, why did they discontinue it so quickly?
