Default RE: Ever heard of Raidentech?

Yep!
I bought 4 ARFs from them. 3 trainers and 1 aerobatic/scale. What can I say? The prices were good.

2 of the Galaxy trainer were great. Put them together in the afternoon and flew the next day. However, there were small glitches in the 2nd one. It came with a wrong spinner. I would have been annoyed if it had been the first plane.

The 3rd trainer, Yamato, was an abosolute horror. I picked it up for $49.99. Just about everything was off and the kit wasn't as complete as Galaxy. I would have to admit I had spent over 20 hours correcting mismatches. I would say the flight characteristic of Galaxy is much better than that of Yamato.

4th one was a Yellow Long EZ 46. I'm satisfied with the quality of the ARF including the material and the workmanship. The instruction has much room for improvement. I haven't completed the assembly, yet, because I've made a lot of modifications and still contemplating further modifications before the first flight!!!
