Default RE: Nitro models planes

RCP,

I personally contacted several members from this site that had bought ARF's from AK or Nitro, the P51 in specific, and none of the people I contacted had completed buiding the ARF, so no flight input was given. I can tell you this, the models from AK or Nitro are mass produced in China, and the quality is ~~~~~~~ so so. I purchased a Extra 300S and it came with a damaged canopy. I returned the canopy and never received a replacement..... So, the plane is just sitting on the racks in the garage for the past 4 months.

Bottom line, you usually get what you pay for, and I will gladly pay a little more for a Hanger9, Seagull, or whomever for a better quality plane..... Greg
