Status: offline 		It looks like Graupner are going to relaunch the Kwik Fli! Available in the UK later this year, I'm not sure about the US. It's an ARTF so not for the purist but worth a look.

Status: offline 		Yes, there was some discussion on the forum about it awhile back. There were some comments about the inverted engine mount and odd wing tips. Home Hobby Solutions makes a Kwik Fli III reproduction kit that is excellent http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4221047/tm.htm

Status: offline 		I obviously missed the remarks about Graupners new version of the Kwik Fli. I totally agree, Jeff's kit is far superior I bought one when he released the kit but so far I haven't had time to start the build. I have an RJL K61 that you recommended (Sheldon Hobbies) waiting to put in it, it was a steal at the present exchange rate if you live in the UK!

Thanks
John

Status: offline 		The Quick Fli III is a great aiarplane, but I for one would not pay 200 bucks for an ARTF. I prefer to build my own. I built an original Gruapner QF III back in the early 70s when I lived in Germany, loved it and flew it to death for 4 years until it just litterly fell apart.
