Hey Don

I would just like to know how you painted your canopy, looks great!



ORIGINAL: Don M.

I have put about 150 flights on my Venus 11 over the last 2 months and have to say that it is the best flying sport / pattern plane I have had in 20 years. My set up is an OS 120FS, weighs 8.5 lbs. and has unlimited vertical with a 15 - 8 APC. I started out with a Saito 125 but it was so sick and used so much fuel I pulled it and sent it to Horizon. It has been returned with a few new parts ( warranty ) but the OS works so good it will stay in it.

To the guy above who wants to run a Evolution 26cc in it all I can say is you won't be happy. I just sold a MVVS 26cc and they weigh 55 ozs. with a tuned pipe, battery etc. If you run without a pipe you will lose toooo much power. Yes they are advertised at 32 ozs. but that is BARE weight.
