What is the story on the big Sig ARF. A search of these forums has turned up very little info on this bird. I am interested in buying one in the future but I have been unable to find anyone that has much to say about it. Is it a good quality, good performer/handling etc.? Do any of you guys have experience with this airplane?

I had one that I put a BME50 on. It was one of the early ones with the supposed bad wing. I never had any problems with it. It was not good in knife edge and when it stalled it would drop the right wing. Because of the tall gear it bounced on landing if you had any speed at all and would drop onto the runway if it got slow. But it looked great. If you WANT a Sukhio it is a good plane, mine weighed 16lbs exactly witn the BME 50.

However there are better planes out now than that one for about the same price. Such as the Wild HAre Edge and Extra, or the Great Planes Patty Extra.
