I got the model from my LHS. It was around $310 shipped. You can look on Ace Hobby's web site to find a local dealer.

Phil, Once I get the motor and batts installed, I'll see how much weight I can afford to put in the tail. The nose is so short, a couple ounces in the tail will equate to many ounces in the nose. The weight is at 10.5 lbs without having balanced it. I hope to be able to achieve balance with my batteries all the way forward in the cowl. But we'll see. It may need even more weight to balance.
