Default RE: Which ARF for $100

$100 ?????

KYOSHO has two 40-size ARFs. One is a low winger, the other is a highwing. A buddy and I just assembled the high winger in about 4 hours and flew it the next day. It flies great.

Both of them are named CALMATO. What that means is way beyond me. Got no clue what it means, but it could be Japanese for "flies great". The low wing is the Calmato SPORT. The high wing is just the Calmato.

The low wing is almost exactly like my $150 Tiger2. I've got another hour of work before I find out if it flies like the Tiger2.

Both airplanes are REALLY almost ready to fly. Glue the wing halves together, the horizontal stab into the fuselage and go fly..... uh.... put the radio in and the engine on..... and go fly.

Good value..... Great value actually.

Got both from the LHS for $105. each.
