Used is the Least Expensive way to go .... Just 2 days ago I bought a
1. very Large profile thick wing 3D plane "Lectric" with Tyrnigy R6364 motor 80 amp turnigy 6 to 12 cell speed control 4 6s 5000 Mah batts
Spectrum receiver w/ satellite and all servos
2. a 68" Yak 54 with big electric motor speed control 2 5s 5000 MaH bats spectrum reciver digital Hi tourk MG servos pull pull rudder RTF after charge
3 the one I wanted a Ultra Stick LITE with Futaba 3010 servos 2 batts Dle 30 with 3 tanks of gas thru it a 7000 w/ SAT spectrum reciver that I sh{t canned all for $900 Cash
OH OH OH I for got the little Blue FA-18 Foam ducted fan jet w/ Batt Receiver SC Ready to fly as soon as I get a good receiver in it ... Speckey Junk U Know.

Now at prices like that Why should I build. especially when i hate it and CA hates me.
Already sold the profile for $250 and the and it's motor / speed controll for another $100 I really got $0 for the 7000 w SAT
Now if I sell the Yak and the FA-18 I'll get the Ultra lite w/ New DLE 30 for less than $150
No Brag Just Fact .....Now if I liked to build this would not be a factor But RCU for Sale and Swap meets and auctions exist for the The people with NO SKILLS and just like to fly
...
side note the seller made a remark this will get me 6 hours in a C172 man that a long ways away from the $10 wet and $5 for the instructor When I started my ratings in 1970.
