Status: online 		I went with standard Dubro horns. I already had them and they seem a little stronger than the stock ones. I'm not sure if I am going to go with 4-40 rods or not. I dont' want to add any unneccessary weight.

Status: offline 		I test flew a friends Harrier today with an O.S. .91 4 stroke.This plane flies great. rolls were on a string. harriers no problem. knife edges great. Hovers awesome!! should have been called the Hover! Even in 10mph gusts very little rudder,elevator needed. By far the easiest plane ive hovered. the O.S. has plenty of power to pull out using a 15x6APC. NICE . Ive got to get one

Status: online 		I flew mine today for the first time with a Saito 100, 15% and a 15x4 prop. It's a big slow plane. I nicknamed it the hog. It is so easy to hover it almost does it by itself. I harriered to a landing on accident. I kept waiting for a stall and it fell in as smooth as silk. Knife edge seemed good to. I can't wait to get a 16x4 with 25% going. It also harriers very easily. The only problem I had with it is you can hardly tell the top from the bottom since its all the same color.

Status: offline 		I AGREE WITH YOU ON THE TOP FROM BOTTOM VERY DIFFICULT TO TELL. I THINK IM GONNA PUT YELLOW STRIPES OR CHECKER BOARD THE BOTTOM OF MINE. I THINK THAT WILL HELP ALOT! I HAD TO REALLY CONCENTRAYE AND HUNT FOR THE LANDING GEAR WHEN I HAD IT IN THE AIR.

Status: offline 		I'm wanting to get one of these, is a Saito 100 a good choice or no? Also, what does the manual say about servos and what servos are you guys putting in yours?

Status: online 		A Saito 100 is OK but if you have the bucks a YS 110 will probably be better. It pulls out of a hover a little slowly. I am going to try 25% fuel and a larger prop next week. I have fairly cheap servos /60oz/ and from my first flight today I would say you could get by with these but they struggled a little.

Status: offline 		I HAVE AN OS 91 SURPASS PUMPED ON MINE WITH A 15X6 APC AND IT HAS PLENTY OF VERTICAL. IM USING STANDARD JR 537 BB SERVOS AND THEY SEEM TO DO VERY WELL. THE BALACE WITH THIS COMBO CAME OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CG RANGE AND IT FLEW TERRIFIC SO IM GOING TO MOVE THE WEIGHT BACK A LITTLE TODAY AND SEE HOW IT ACTS.
