Default RE: new vmar tiger arrow

OK,I've been backing VMAR for a couple of years and still do to some extent. I still say for the price,you get what you pay for.
My Arrow Tiger looks great sitting in the cool garage.Looks better than the pix's in the ads.For $129,it's a looker.

BUT: I'm like Larry. One of the ingredients of the wing hold down bolts must be butter.That's the softest plastic I've ever seen. One bolt down of the wing and the bolt just decentigrated. Like I said butter!!!!
The covering looks fine but once (and I've always said this) in the hot sun,it's disasster.Bubbles everywhere.I still used everything in the box except for the wing bolts.We'll see..
I've bragged on the VMAR because even tho the covering don't like sun,My Edge 540 is still going strong after two years and is a very docile flier.So I've been well pleased with the 540.

Whether I'll buy another VMAR??? Don't know at this point.If this thing bubbles like Larry said,Probably not.The Edge bubbles a bit,but I can live with it,but if the Tiger bubbles more than the Edge,I'll take another route next time.The bubbles just destroys a nice looker..

Thanx
