I recntly pirchaded a TBM Monter from http://www.troybuiltmodels.com/Monte.html , what a excellent 3D plane.
I have a E-Flite brushless 400 with 6.6 gears and a 12 x 3.8 prop in a Himax gearbox. This plane flys very well, excellent low speed properties unbelievable harriers and hovering. Even the giant scales flyers wan't to try flying it. The color pattern is very good looking and highly visible. I had a E-Flite 3D Tribute but this is a much better plane. I have it powered by a Thunder Power 3 cell 2100 lipo.
The plane basically snaps together with minimal glue. I used Hitec HS 55 servos, a JR 610ul receiver and Phoenix 25 esc.
The #D manuveurs and sharp and crisp!!
This plane is a winner !!!
