It arrived today... and in the box, to my surprise, was a Futaba T6EXAP digital radio instead of the 6YG analog I was expecting. Yeehaw!
You'll like it. Fly's great. Put 3 more stripes, the same size as the blue one on the wing. WAY easier to see in the air. It will bump a 12" prop if you land hard, so for your first flights I would recommend picking up a couple of Top Fight 12X6 wood props and a reamer. Ream them out, balance them and take them with you to the field.

When you get conferable with the plane, try a APC 12X6 or 12X8. I like the 8, but it will pull the elevator off if you dive wide open, (go ahead, ask me how I know!)... so use some common sense with if you try the APC 12X8. Scoot
