Default Its Here!! Double Vision

Well, my building schedule has just changed. I recieved my Double Vision and what a sight to behold, the workmanship is finite! and the color match is what all ARF's should strive for. Great ball bearing aluminium hardware in the kit. I believe this can be ready to fly in 1 weekend! And yes there is a tunnel for a pipe if you want to use one. Look for the review upcoming in FLY RC.

Chip, this is a killer kit! Thanks for sharing your designs with all of us! If you don't have one yet, order it now this is to good to stay $619.00.

The Biplane is 620.00 and any 50cc motor will be 600.00 and then servos. Everything Else is there! Including Ball Bearing and Aluminium Control horns!

or
www.planesplus.com

Good luck,

I guess if you are flying the UCD series, you can't appreciate the quality/value of this plane for the money! Just Kidding. For a 50cc sized plane there is nothing in its class for the money. Chip will sell every plane he gets his hands on and the price will not be $619.00 for long.

Check out the tunnel for a pipe if you want to use one. And look at the cabane struts, airfoiled and finished superbly.

This is Don Kanak from Planes Plus Inc, we are handeling the importing and distribution end of The Chip Hyde aircraft and accesories.
To answer several of the questions that were asked here-

1. Kitman has a plane because it is my personal aircraft that was sent in air freight for the Wram and Toledo shows and he is a long time friend that I trust to assemble it properly so we can have it for display at Toledo
and to fly as a demo plane at The Joe Nall.
2. As to the status of the aircraft on order or for you that wish to get in line for this awesome product here are the facts as of this a.m.
We have chosen to freight ahead of the 45 foot container 30 aircraft that are going to the first 30 in line,
that shipment has arrived in the USA this week and we should within a week after customs and delivery to our Plainfield Illinois distribution center.
The container containing 300 more will ship in the next 10 days and will take approx. 30 days to arrive,
over 200 of these are already sold so if you wish to reserve one it is a good idea to pre order oat www.chiphyde.com or call us at 630-904-9983.

3. Also keep in mind that we have a few of the CAP-X and GeeBee kits left from the last container so if you
want one of these email us at [email protected] or call.

4. Also we will start taking orders on our new Chip Hyde competition series extras we debutted at the Wram Show, first size is the 34% arf for 799 and also in kit form ( highly prefab) and the 27% arf and kit.

Thanks
Don and Carla Kanak

I have one on order so it's interesting to see.
Can't stop believing this isn't a commercial post though!
Hummmm.
