Default GeeBee On The Way

My GeeBee "Y" is on the way. I have the tracking number and it is almost here. I saw the prototype at the NW Hobby Expo in Puyallup, Washington. Some have remarked it was not as nice as they would have liked. I thought it was good quality and understanding it was a prototype. They usually go through a lot of growing pains on a new project like this. They wanted to be sure it was right. The reason for the delay was the modifications and changes. I was able to talk with Johnson Ting (Mr. Pacaeromodel) extensively at the hobby show throughout the weekend. He told me about the research and development of this model. I owned one of their SU-26 Sukhoi .40 size when they first came out about 10 years ago and I liked the quality of it. I knew I would get an excellent product, so I did not hesitate to order one. It sounds like Brian really likes his and I can hardly wait to see mine tomorrow. I will power mine with a 3W-24. That should be a perfect combination. I'm sure it will be a big hit at any flying field.
