um i have the magazine around here somewhere.
i think but sont sure it goes something like this
81 inch wingspan
12 -13 pounds
ment for os 160 or 40cc gas
paint sceme is to die for in my mind looks like one more thing to spend on. i think it is just begging for a zdz 40.

I think you can post a copy righted picture here, as long as you include the source and it's not used for monetary purpose. This is a discussion forum after all.

Looks like the H9 260, but a yak. Nice. My guess 8 to 8.5 pounds bare judging by the 12.5 pound advertised weight.
Wouldn't it be nice if EF did one of these in this size....6.5 to 7 pounds bare. --11 pounds RTF with OS 1.6 or 12 pounds with B2.4. It would be phenomenal. I still don't think the margins are there though--probably costs just as much to make as a 50cc bird but not enough people want to pay $600+ for a large glow/40cc plane.

Probably, just like the Ultimate they released, the cost will be much lower once it hits the shelves. I can see this plane in the $375-$399 category, just like the Hanger 9 Extra. Diff is, Hanger 9 tells you up front what it is gonna cost, Great planes gives you their "I wish!" price & then lowers it to a more realistic price when they release it.

Actually, Chris has a new 74 incher to replace the 68 inch yak. It was designed around an os 1.60. Should be sweet.
