you'd be surprised at how differant the stock of products varies from one state to another. i bought the X-Twin in early august, and stores started carrying the AA a month or two later. here in minnesota though, we didnt get any till almost a month later than everyone else. waiting would've killed me the jet looks pretty interesting though, and it'll be interesting to see what modifications they'll have done. i hope they fixed the "no throttle-no steering" issue, and hopefully they'll be selling those replacement props too.

anyway, this is the newest plane i've made with the electronics. its a profile version of the Grokhovsky G-38 Light Cruiser. 10" wingspan, 3" chord at the root, 1/32" balsa, .020" CF reinforcement, AUW of just over 11 grams. it could be lighter, but i'm using a slightly larger, 160mah cell. it took a couple test flights (crashes) to get the CG right, but its now flying quite nicely. if i put the CG back a bit, i can almost get perfect 180 degree stall turns, looks cool.
