After looking at all the above, my personal favorite is the white with red and black trim:

We were ready for some pictures to brighten things up around here............You don't see many Kyosho Ag Wagons around.........I've got a buddy that is still hoarding one in his basement. I keep trying to talk him out of it but its no use. I'll show him when I get the new 1/5 scale in my hands. And you scratch builders turn out some amazing stuff. I can barely make something out of a kit with good directions..........Outacontrol41 is around here somewhere...........he's working on a big Pawnee.....a TMRC I believe. Anyway, thanks for the photos.............I'm anxious to get that 97" Ag Wagon from the RCGUYS.........it gonna be fun.

Here I am... .....Big Pawnee pics below. The smoke system is in. Moving on to other interior stuff like sevo installment. Then finally the wings and tail. It's a fun project so far. Even roknhs would enjoy this build, no matter how bad he says he is. The Kyosho Ag Wagon also shown was bought about 2001 and has about 600+ flights on it. It's easier to fly than a trainer...not stretching the truth, it really is. Flies well in wind, easy to land, gotta love it! That's one of the reasons I know the RC Guys Wagon will strike a home run with their Ag Wagon.

$400 to $500 would be my guess. Probably closer to $500.

I'll try and get some pics of my uncles turbo-prop AgCat soon.

Outacontrol- looking good on the Pawnee. Are you going to have it ready to maiden by the time the AgWagon comes out? Then you can maiden both at the same time. Have you made any decisions on when your going to start the AgCat? I'll be looking out for a build thread on that one.

I would like the price to be closer to $400 but if it takes $500 for it to be done right then I'll settle for that to. As long as the ARF is done correctly and close to scale and flys great!
Do you think they'll add the ribs to the control surfaces to make it even closer to scale? Or will they leave them smooth?
