Default RE: Eagle 2

I will have to agree with most people here, the 65 is way too much. I had a eagle 2 that I bought from a guy who built it, installed everything and never flew it. It sat around his house for 6 years. I got plane, engine and radio equipment for $150. Seemed like a great deal to my wife at the time when she bought it for me for Christmas 3 years ago. She didn't foresee the addiction that soon started. Anyway with that 65 the eagle will not want to come down. I had a OS 40 FP (predecessor to the la) and the plane flew around fine but still wanted to float all day on landings. I got to the point where I could put it one click above idle and run the wheels of the plane along the tips of the grass on the run way.
