I agree 100% i didnt notice the prop clearance issue yet! And yes an ounce is an ounce i go to great length's to save an ounce , i just thought that the stock landing gear was really good cause it only wieghted 7oz. but hey if you cant clear the prop it is worhtless!!!


I'am going to use a ZDZ 50 in mine. ZDZ'z have been great engines with the ones i have and i have 2 and soon to be 3 .


There is no arf out there that can contend with a kit , every ARF i have had is always heavier than they so they are suppost to be and I have yet to find one that is not hot glued together, You get a little gasoline on hot glue and it just disolve's trust me i know.

When you build a plane you get great glue joints and you can lighten the plane as you build and you end up with a plane that will make 100's of flights without falling apart !!!!!!!!! There isnt many ARF"S out there that have 1000's of flight's on them but there is alot of kit's that do. JMO.
