anyone know about the suduction
The Seduction is produced here in Japan by OK Model Co., LTD (EZ, Pilot) and comes in a variety of flavors...
The Seduction FunFly is a profile ARC (almost ready to cover) and takes a 30-46 2 stroke or 40-50 4 stroke-span 46.5 inches, weight 65 oz. or so. It is a very popular hoverer, and has unlimited vertical with a .52. As with most profile planes, the fuselage will break quite easily if abused.
The Seduction FreeStyle is slightly larger (50 in. span,75 oz.) and has a real fuselage, this one will take a 46 2 stroke or 60ish 4 stroke. This is a full kit with laser cut parts.
The Seduction 25 (46", 60 oz.)and the Seduction 90 (68"/130 oz.) (maybe what you saw) are similar to the FreeStyle, but are more geared to pattern flying. The 25 is a great small knife-edge trainer and the 90 is even better, very stable but powerful and able to do any maneuver in the book. Both of these, and the FreeStyle, have airfoiled horizontal stabilizers and are a blast to fly. Oh yeah, no (b)ARF's here, these are full laser cut kits too.
As far as prices I can tell you the following approximate retail here:
Seduction FunFly ARC- $175; FreeStyle $185 (wow!); 25 $125; 90 $325 (wow/wow!!) Kits and wood are expensive here, but street price is actually a little (5-15%) lower at discount shops.
I suppose it would be possible to send something from Japan if you can't find a distributor there, but shipping is not cheap for these items. You would have a very expensive project on your thumbs by the time you were finished.
Hope this helps.

Oh yeah, check out the O.K. website http://www.okmodel.co.jp , it's all in Japanese and not a very good site anyway, but maybe you'll see something helpful.
