Which plane are you talking about, RCVFR? Your post seems to be missing a link.
Thanks for all the suggestions! I'd LOVE the ORA Transformer, as it's a nitro version of the Hobbico Switch that I was eying. But it looks like it's no longer available (I send rcwarez an email), and I think it'd be well over $200 if it was. The Wingman looks nice, particularly the apparent quality of the covering. But at that price, I'd probby opt for the Easy Sport, as it's apparently a clone of the Goldberg Falcon I like. I'll be researching Stiks models, too.
I'd love to hear if anyone's had experience with any of the [link=http://www.nitroplanes.com/highwing.html]nitroplane.com high-wing traners[/link]
Otherwise, I think I'm at the point where the Easy Sport or a Stik are my options at the higher price-point ($140-150), but I'm still strongly considering lower-price options, like the VMAR Hornet (where they discount a nice motor if you buy both), or maybe the nitroplanes.com, world models or something else I can get to my door for about $100.
Thanks again!
ORIGINAL: RCVFR
This plane (also the World Models Sky Raider Mach I version) is a terriffic flyer. I bought one about 5 years ago for instruction purposes, powered with an OS 40LA, and I ended up putting far more sport flying time on it than ''instructional'' time. On mine, assembly instructions were sparce, but if you have put together a few ARFS, it goes together well. A good recommendation.
