Has anyone seen one of these flying? I happened to see this plane today and I've got to have one.

A friend of mine is traveling to the UK in two weeks and is willing to bring one of these home for me if they're available. Anyone in the UK know of a shop that has one of these yet?

Looks like the perfect ship for an OS 50SX or a YS63...

Thanks in advance,

David

So no one's seen one yet? Okay, can anyone in the UK point me to a dealer who carries the Fiber Classics line?

Thanks in advance...

i bought one at fiber classics they gave me a 100€ discount it was there last one now you can order them alt composite arf.com
at the first fligt the aileron stabs bent resulting in a crash.
i orderd a new fuselage and cowl put 2 servo's in the wings.
seems to be alright.
the cheapest way is thru the internet have them post it as a repaired item under warrenty (save's tax)

Having one of these setting in the box it came in. It would be nice to here from anyone who has had some success with this plane. I have the newer Harmony scheme from Composite Barf. Is it worth building???

www.composite-arf.com is also selling these planes

From what I have only heard they are very badly designed in that they fall apart, very strange for such a high breed company such as fiberclassics/composite-arf

Hello everybody,
Well I bought one before I saw this thread.
I might as well try it, but can anybody tell me what servos you fit into the wings and what did you use for the elevators.
One thing they don't tell you to do is seal the hinge line with some tape on the control surfaces, that will help stop the fluttering and maybe use flying wires between the horizonal and vertical stabs.
I hope this help because I don't want to lose this plane.
Any recommendations on the servos would be a big help to me.

Thank's
Alex Schuck
