Has anybody flown this airplane yet? If so how about a review on it. I really like the way it looks but I really dont like Horizon Hobby b/c I have had 3 bad apples from their (the 1.20 CAP, the Satio 1.80, The .46 Evolution) ----No hard feelings with saito though b/c of the good luck with every other product from them. Oh yeah...back to the question, yeah you guys who have flown it how bout a comparison with some of the other 3D models around its size (ex: laser 3D, U CAN Do, Flip 3D , etc.)

I just yesterday purchased a "Funtana" unit.
From what I see so far, it is out of the box going to be
one of the best for reason it has plus in the package.
Like true axles, and the wing is all one piece.
Pre-view the instructions, this is going to be a
super unit to work with. Everything is a higher grade
parts from other planes I have worked with. Planning on
putting a bigger 4-stroke engine with JR electronics.
I've never had any trouble out of Saito engine and there
very strong. Also, JR equipment is a big plus in this hobby.
Did have a little trouble on a servo a few months ago and
the truth is, it was my fault. But with no questions asked,
JR companies replace it pronto. With a brand new one.
Now that's service. Fuel tank in the package is a better
than I been recieving out of other units. All the parts in
the "Funtana" package are really on the best level .

took this plane out for the first time last weekend was great the first flight was a hand full and a half once she was trimed out she flew smooth and steady. when i wanted her to fly that way. the build was great everything is well done the parts were above average the only thing i upgraded was the control surface linkage to the servos other than that i give this model a 8 out of 10.

Sign Man, you said big Saito. Anything over a .72 is added weight that this plane dosn't need. A .72 with
a 14*4W APC prop will be just right. later daveo
