Default RE: CMP Cessna 182 Skylane

I have had this plane with a Magnum/ASP 61 RFS. It was not the easiest ARF to put together but not so difficult either. I thought the plane came together nicely. The only part I though was beyond the new ARFer is the drilling of the wing dowels. Otherwise the plane is not only beautiful, it was a nice scale flyer. I would recommend a 70 class 4 stroke over the 60 if you're looking for anything above scale flying. Also, file the front landing gear rod down so that the control arm doesn't shift... mine did and it nosed over, scraping the nose gear pants. Also, the control arm broke once leading to more scraping of the nose gear pants... but other than that... love it! Hated to sell it when I left Hong Kong!
