Default Whats wrong with the old Lanier ARFs?

These ARF's are old style and technology, BUT...they fly very well! All will fly very good powered with engines one size smaller that specified. Some of the pattern style ships (Caprice, Jester) were designed when 61 size engines had less power than today's 45s.

They won't last much longer than one flying season due to plastic fatigue but for under $60- $70.00 they are a bargain. I have a six year old Jester I use as a test bed for new receivers, servos and some smaller engines. It is still going strong although I don't know what keeps it together.
