Hobby Lobby has it up on there spy photos, so they should probably soon carry it. I saw one at Mucie at the Nats, it was in the box and looked good, but they wanted way to much for it. I have one Im going to buy at the eletric hobby shop an hour away. I just have to get there. Anyone flying one yet, what do you think??
I know out of all the foamies I flew, The shockflyers were at the top. I like the Copperhead yak too.
When I get the kit in a week or so, I'm planning on using an axi 2208/34 and 3c1320 or 3c910

Mine is almost done.
I'm doing a review of it for RCU. I have the Ikarus A1 brushless option and their 12 amp controller.
I have the two rear pushrods to install, prop & adapter, receiver and battery to install... it's currently 5.8 oz... so it's a LITE bipe.
I'm guessing 9 oz all up and that's not building it extra light.
A CD-Rom motor, CC-10 ESC and Berg Microstamp would make this thing a 7 oz'er...

It's not all it's cracked up to be...
You need to be able to write well, create graphics and program HTML, viode the flights and perform video editing and have extra materials to finish the planes that come in.
Takes a lot more time than you would think and becomes like a job... I'm pretty sure a paper route pays more...
