I have been flying World Model ARF's since they came out. In short, I love them ! Here is a list of the ones I have...

1 Extra 300 .30 (.52 Surpass)
2 Super Sports .40 (.52 Surpass)
2 T-34 (YS .53 FZ)
1 Super Emmeraude .60 (.91 Surpass)
1 Super Chipmunk .90 (.91 Surpass)
1 Cap 232 1.20 (Zenoah G-23 Glow) - just finished assembly

When I bought the little Extra 300 .30, the guys at my LHS told me it was a snap happy fool. WRONG ! It has been a pleasure to fly and acts like it is a much bigger aircraft. Rock solid on final.

You really cannot go wrong with any of the World kits. Yes, the landing gear has been a problem (soft). On my T-34 and Super Sports, I ordered two sets of the Hobbico Brightstar landing gear and have had no trouble since. Plus the Hobbico Brightstar gear can be had for about $5 from Tower.

If I didn't already have a Sig Extra 300XS, I would get the World Extra 1.20. I am just about finished with the 1.20 sized Cap 232 with a Zenoah G-23 Glow turning a Cleveland Cyclonic 18x6 CF prop. BTW, the Zenoah G-23-G is one strong running engine. It turns this prop at 8K !!

Hope you enjoy yours !
