Yep, ordered 4 of them direct from Japan, sold 3 of them. Not sure if they are importing them to the US.

Put an Irvine 39 on one of them and it ROCKED.

Sold it to a guy who "had to have it"

Got another sitting in the shop unfinished, however going to make it E-powered. Just haven't done it yet.

They fly just like the bigger Flip.

I believe the prototype of the Flip 3D 25 was called the Quizzical and was flown for Kyosho by Sebastiano Silvestri in Russia. I have a video of that flight on my PC with a 2003 date on the file.
In fact if you click the Flip 3D 25 video at Kyosho you get the Quizzical video, the same one that I have.
This is the video, http://www.kyosho.ru/video/quizzical.wmv
(removed dot from link to make it work correctly when clicked)
It can also be seen at the Russian website http://www.hobbyclub.ru/video/quizzilite.wmv

It was about a grand for 4 of them. Kinda pricey, however I like having stuff noone else has.
