I'm told the Hots that Dan designed and sold through MAN plans is A better flying plane then the one produced by MW. I read it someplace when he was telling about the design. Something to do with the added weight or the removeable wing?? Been A while. I was thinking Atwater and reading Clovis. I have flown A number of times at the Freson field and used to fly the giant scale events held there.
Rick Maida cuts the Foam wing and sells A Giant Hots very cheap and it's A great flyer. If you Don't know him ask John Lockwood or go to the IMAA show in Chowchilla this year and take A look at Ricks plane. Does everything and looks good too.
