I have some spare canopys/frames and plan to make a sleeker one like Ebroens did with his super hot spot.
I have 2 rookieIIs and 1 harpoon., guess I'll start trying to collect more.
(IMO) Rookies are the best bang for the buck. They led the way in 3d jets.
They are easy and inexpensive to build.
They can be tuff to land smoothly sometimes but it is usually due to something you do wrong.
If your c/g is off or you land to slow or to fast they can get goofy quick.
I land them a little fast with anti-skid on = perfect every time.
If I run out of rookies I'll quit flying.
