Hey guys, itm me again asking about 3d planes, (still dont got one yet!!)

Anyway, how do the fun-airs fly from chief aircraft?

I havnet heard very much about these planes but they look good


David

The good news: They are nice flying planes. Mine came in at 3 lbs 13 ounces with the OS40FP. Flies very nicely with any 40 2 stroke.

The bad news: They don't go together like a good quality ARF. They take a bit of extra work to get them built. I just sent Chief an e-mail detailing my fixes. If you're interested I can send it to you.

If you are ok with doing custom mods to an ARF I say go for it. It flies so well that it's worth it. If you despise having to do anything extra to an ARF, avoid it. It's not for those people.

Here's my thread for the user review section with a picture on how to install the rudder's pull-pull servo and cables outside the fuse.

Coming out with an updated version in March with a bigger fuse, canopy and cowl and still weigh the same. I have the 20 version. Lots of things to make right on it but well worth it as it as Joeairport says. Full symetrical wing so it does outside aerobatics very well, unlike the Magic that I have. The 20 version weighs 2lbs. with a 25 FP.

What kindof mods are you talking about, is the incidence off, wings warrped, o what?


If its not to serious i wouldnt mind, let me know.

Any pics?

David:
My friend has the 40 version and the goodies inside was a tight fit so they made the fuse roomier. The canopy and cowl are just for aesthetics. From the way my friends and mine flew they didn't need to change anything else as far as aerodynamics goes. Im going to buy the 40 version when it comes out. I don't think you would be disapointed.
