You'll find the kit a disappointment in the plastic parts area. I ended up backing all the plastic parts with a layer of fiberglass. Used the fixed gear that came with the kit. The goofy elevator control was replaced with thin wing servo mounted on the horizontal stab. Flies good. I can only get 2200 batteries in there right now, working on a plan to put some larger ones in for longer flight times. Jerry.
Jerry, Are the ones you got from Hobby Hanger? I got mine from them w/the military scheme. There's not much plastic involved in the ARF. I'll post pics soon. If we are talking about the same models, what did you find "goofy" about the elevator control?
