RE: Lanier Comet nightmare
I just got my second Dart in the air a few weeks ago (first one lasted 20 minutes after stalling it in a tail wind). It was a alot to finish, and I modded it some. Like scratch built tail feathers. But man, was it worth the time! This thing SCREAMS with a bushinged TT 61. It is hands down, my fastest plane. It also does excellent pattern, and will climb till it's just a small dot in the sky. It's my first 'hot' landing plane, which will train me to land fast before I get my 80" Byron's CAP 21 finished next spring. I'm sure the plastic will break before too long, but I'm going to fly the snot out of her til then!
