Hi,
This I must say is an extraordinary service at a reasonable cost for the Allure:
"We’re offering a new service we’re dubbing the “Designer’s Touch”. Bryan will verify alignment and fit from the factory and then apply his current, personal settings to the airplane so that you have the most up to date and perfect setup available. It will cost $300 and be available at checkout on our main website."

(about five sections down on that page)

I'm rather impressed what is offered to a potential buyer:
- Obviously a very well designed and thourouly tested plane.
- Obviously fly very good, in hands of good pilots like at the NATS.
- Available for glow/YS, electric traditional single prop and electric Contra dual prop system.
- In addition to standard color scheme it is offered colors swap and custom color scheme at reasonable cost as well as base white or base yellow at reduced cost.
- Even builders kit planned Q4 2015 according to designers webpage for those that want to do more themselves on the build.

- And now the new service "Designer’s Touch".
All above combined is probably rather unique?
One thing I find unclear at the designers website is the cost for Custom color scheme.
It is written "Custom schemes are $500 additional" but if you select "Custom Sheme" in the drop down on the website it is shown "Allure F3A Monoplane $
TBD + $750".
And I suppose the Shopping Cart for Allure at the website is not working since there is no "Add to Cart" possibility.
Some may think the plane look great, some may think it look not so great but what counts in the end for most I'm sure is the flight characteristics.
It will be very interesting to see how well Allure can do in the hands of pilots that fly it at the World Championship soon.
If anyone know for sure what pilot(s) will fly Allure at the WC please tell us.
