I've seen the plane first hand when I was in Hong Kong back in March of this year, I think this is the older 160 version. My friend Alex Lau has the latest 170 version, made by www.thhobby.com of China.

I agreed with Z.C.'s comment, the plane needs some improvement, but shows potential, reminds me of the Oxai product when they first came onto the market.

Adrian and Zi-Chun,

I saw Alex Lau's Styling 170 during the F3A Friendship Club.... Overall quality of that plane is under average... The painting is not good to start with, and worst the tail planes are wrap, and the aileron control surface was stepped... I wanted to cancel my Styling order after seeing Alex's but it was too late....so...

My Styling came about a month ago together with 2 others desined for other flying buddies... Luckily my Styling was not wrapped, but the painting is still very poor, worst than Alex's one, but luckily my styling came without a scratch... the other two one was damaged during transit, and both have wrapped control surfaces...

Alex Lau finally could make time to assemble my Styling this week.... It would be interesting to see how it flies though.... He told me that someone in Taiwan already assembled one and it flew good... Is it you Zi-Chun?

Regards,

Jason

Zi Chun,

TH is crazy saying things like that! It doesn't need rocket scientist to see that their paint job is bad! Most outrageous is what they wanted to charge for the plane!

Thanks for the heads up on the hinge, I will let Alex know.

Hope to see friends of Taiwan again!

Regards,

Jason
