Is anyone familiar with this ARTF plane also marketed as Electric Dragon.

The manual says the CG should be 40 mm behind the l/e which seem strange for a 280mm chord (incl ailerons). I have seen suggestions that 70-75mm is nearer the mark.

Also can anyone suggest a cheap outrunner/esc combo off the internet. This is all very confusing to the beginner. The box suggests 200-250 watts. I intend to use 3S Lipo.

Thanks

If its the chinese 17 oz firedragon, I own one and use an essky 400 xt...1200 mah lipo...10.7 apc slowflyer prop....beware, its not a beginners planes....turn your rates down to 30 percent at first...its smoothe but a handfull for beginners...dave

Is this the one with the yellow covering shown on the link below? Seems like a very low price for an attractive model, I was wondering what the catch is...? Did it assemble OK?

the catch is they do not sell replacement parts. I had to put a thicker wire between the two elevator halves to get them to both react the same.
