I think there is a place for the Viper and Predator, however..... I have moved away from them in favour of the Seeker fuse and a 66012 wing. I was never happy with the absolutely terrible covering job of the Viper (I have never bought a predator). The last Viper I bought I ended up stripping the whole thing and recovered it. I would reconsider if they would package the kit without pre-applied covering. Based on that experience I recon I get more satsfaction from building and covering or painting a Seeker fuse as remove and recovering a viper.


As for the wings I have gone to a 66012 wing only because thats what the go fast guys seem to prefer. I do however believe that a semi-symmetrical airfoil should be faster than a symmetrical airfoil.
