Status: offline 		It is a very good feeling when its finally done . I started in June and made the first flight today . This was my first carden build and to tell the truth it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be . I don't know the weight but it flies like no other plane I've ever own . Before I built this one I couldn't understand what all the hype was about . The way it builds and flys is truly amazing. My set up is hitec 5945 's and 5955's smartfly power expander and turbo regulator DA 100 fromeco battery swb arms and tray. I will post updates as time goes on. I look forward to many many more flights. Thanks for your time . Darrell

It looks great, and nothing short of a DS masterpiece!!! You should see my new one, not as pretty or distinctive as yours. But it's nice to me!

LOL You know that isn't far from happening now. Well I look forward to seeing this bird fly many awesome flights man! You are a true Master Craftsman, and I envy the hell out of you for it!

Status: offline 		Tight looking plane....wish that I had the courage to put one together... jsut a bit leary that I'll get hung up along the way then the thing will sit in the shop until who knows when so I think that's why I going to get one an ARC 37.5 AM YAK.... I really like to personalize my planes. I must say again that your Carden really came out nice. Compared to your AM Yak how is the Carden. I really want one. Guess you could say that they are the Cadillacs of r/c planes. LOL!!! Did you cover and paint your Carden kit yourself or did you have some help. Peace

Status: offline 		Well I like both planes ,the AM is no carden but its not to costly. The AM floats very good as does the carden . The carden is a way more precise in the moves . I myself am not a great pilot but the carden makes you looks like you are very good . Its hard to explain till you fly one . As for the build there is alot of threads here on RCU and on the carden site that will walk you right through it. I built and covered mine some of the build you will want to talk to Dennis at Carden about to help you understand how he does things. The feeling you get when someone ask if you built it is great and when you fly it, man oh man what a feeling. I think if you want to build one, you can, don't limit yourself by fear. When done , it will be worth it . I hope this helps, now mind you, I have never build one before this one and I think I did ok . I'm going to build a 40% next. Carden of course.


One happy customer

Darrell
