Goldberg says the end of the year now...

What is the latest on this? Any one?

KNIFE BROTHER-Whats the word on the Matrix 40?

Sorry, I haven't seen Bubba and Wayne in several months, so I haven't heard any news.

I emailed CGP about the Matrix and got this reply:

Sir,

This plane will be released in about 90 days. Watch our web site for future postings. www.carlgoldbergproducts.com

I replied asking them about the weight increase. I will post here as soon as I hear back from them.

will Great planes/ tower be selling them like the extreme 330?

Great Planes is a CGP distributor so they shold certainly have the plane when it comes out.

I'll ask them about it at the Toledo show I'd like to have one too Sounds like a perfect home for my YS 45.

For those that have never seen these planes go to the following link http://www.hobbynet-jp.com/english/hobbynet.html
Select ARFs, then Hokusei Models. The plane is the Primus Acro. You want bigger ailerons? Primus Fun. Think I'm kidding? F. Air is sold here as CG Extreme 330. Have 330 and have seen F.Air in person, same plane. Check out the Edge and Gee Bee versions. All these planes were designed by Yoichiro "Torqueroller" Ono. He used to be one of OK Models test pilots and had a lot to do with the design of the Seduction Freestyle. And if that is not enough look at the bottom of the list. 2 meter Primus version. You all need to start bugging Carl Goldberg so that they will start marketing the complete line in the US. Those Japanese prices are high!
