Thanks for posting the information! Looks very good.
I sent a message to you here, but I don't think it went through. I sent an email as well.

Edit: Disregard, I see that you already responded to my email. Thanks!

Has anyone received one of these yet. Pretty tempting. Looks like a BJ Craft Episode clone.

Is it still only $150.00 freight from China?

I have been in touch with Henry at Toprcmodels and will be receiving one soon, I will be doing a review of the Caelus here on RCU that will answer all of the quality, weight and flying questions that everyone has about this new design. I look forward to getting started as soon as I receive the model. The plan is to also have high quality video of the model flying through some of the sequences.

There appear to be minor differences such as the attachment point of the Canalizer, overall shape of the rudder, cosmetic changes, etc., but not enough to truly distinguish it from an Episode.

For a couple of weeks I have asked Henry to send me pictures of the bottom of the aircraft, yesterday he finally sent me an email with a picture and a note that the price is now $899.00 plus shipping. I'm dissapointed in the price change. I would have ordered one yesterday at the advertised $699 price but at $899 I'm not sure I'm interested in trying one.

I agree he should put a few out there so someone can review it.
