well then enforcer is 90, .90 size used byron setups..150-200 on ebay(more than enough power), any type retracts (mech on mine, air on the guys i help set up) stantard servos. monocote covered and about 8lbs.......under $500 and 120-130 mph speeds at this alt.

if you want to save money on a "scale" set up, be patient, buy kits off ebay, autions, etc.
don't buy rtf, buy kits so you dont get someone's elses mistakes.
(these planes don't put up with flaws to well)

i can be done.

a tga pro f15 $680 just for the kit!
bought one off a guy geting out of the hobby,
kit(unstarted), air retracts, rossi 105/ pipe..............$250!!!


if I didnt stumble on it i wouldn't have it !

Also had a freind buy a Byron f-16/ fan/.65(to small for alt) at longmont for $ 250.00.
that was his Jet trainer and lasted 2yrs and is getting heavt from repair (his and previous). thats a deal too.

If you build the a-10( and if you do i would like to see it too, my favorite, but dont want the "dean lasik" giant) build it and buy the Turbax/engines off ebay. those fan/engines aren't that popular and tend not to go over $200 for both. and considering an endine is what 280 alone?

if you want into jets its possible,
like IMAC you don't have to have a $8000 ,100" edge to fly or even compete!!!!

there are options!
