Default Wooooeeeee - Ready on Floats

I will echo the good comments on the Ready. This is a really good airplane -- on floats or wheels. Mine has been in the air for about a year now on a second hand Thunder Tiger .46. I flew it on New Year's day at our fun fly, with the temp right at a balmy 31 degrees and a wind of about 15 mph. No problems what so ever. I see no sign of cracks, dents or any other wear and tear except for the normal paint dings.

I set mine up with two set screws on the rudder servo, so I can put the water rudder cables through and tighten them real easy. I can change from floats to wheels in 15 minutes. I bought a second water rudder from Falcon, I am going to mount twin rudders this spring.

Great airplane and a good perfomer -- very acrobatic without the floats and not bad with them on. No bad habits what so ever. And one of the easiest to assemble ARF's I ever built. You can every read the directions!
