Got mine today, howeverI`m still flying Radical#2, #1 kind of fell out of the sky when in a hover..,after the engine stopped..,because I ignored my flight timer..,I was having too much fun !Thanks for having my back, Nort, Guys, this plane is a winner ! don`t pass it by..,
By the way..,Last Sunday Nort was flying his Fusion and did a wall I believe,& the horizonal stab broke in two & fluttered to the ground as Nort landed.., it was spectaular !!!

Mine should be here today. Have you guys made any modifications? I think I'll change the landing gear, pushrods and mount the power switch on top of the wing. I'm trying to come up with a better way to run servo wires from the tail.

I am thinking about ordering the Radical 330. Once you receive the Radical, post a note on how the quality looks.

Will the weight of this profile be as advertised? I sure hope so.

weight is not as advertised, unless you go with light servo's, small engine, dont worry, havent weighed mine but id say its around 4lbs with standard gear, likestofly's is about the same. the plane flys great,plenty of powa with a tt.46/os.46 w/tower pipes. opened up #2 for my dad last night, same great quality as #1 was, just a few wrinkles on 'rons' and top of fuse, nothing to worry about, no warps to be found.
should only take a few nights to assemble, got the wing and horiz on last night, using locktite 'sumo' poly glue for wing and horiz, dries faster and less foaming than gorilla glue or elmers poly, dries translucent white, awesome stuff. 'tested' the glue on my ef 74'' yak, hinged all surfaces (hinge points) with the 'sumo' glue, i've put it through every thing i can think of and no failures yet

I received mine yesterday and it looks well built and true. Did you guys have to open up the hole in the fuse for the wing to get it to fit? Any suggestions on the best way to do that? What servo for the throttle?

I just ordered the Radical 330. Thanks Prop Spinner for the code information to received $15.00 off. I belong to the Super Saver Club and it appears that you can get a better deal with the codes.

I plan to use some Hitec servos that I have laying around as well as an OS 46 SF. I ordered an APC 12.25 x 3.75 Prop. I think this is one of the props that is used with 3-D profile aircraft with the 46 engines.

Mine is being shipped from the Nevada Warehouse, so it will be some time before it arrives in Florida. I hope it makes it undamaged.

I almost ordered a MoJo 40 Kit, but felt this was to good of a deal to pass up. The Mojo might be better, but this will be a good starting place.
