Default RE: Super Skybolt ARF

Hahaha Minn, that is the one that flyfanatic is buying.

SDSTICK: The best way to describe the skybolt is to call it a more graceful ultimate. For it's size, it is easily the most "graceful" plane I flown. It floats like a dream, will do inverted flat spins like no other in its class, and lands very easy. The snaps are not as precise as the ultimate, but I would owe that to the size of the ailerons between the two. The skybolt is also not a 3D candidate because you lose aileron control in high alpha maneuvers. Mine came in at 8lbs 1 oz (Fly I know I told you 8lbs 12 oz but I lied, that was my Extra, the skybolt is even lighter ) with a saito 1.25 on the front which makes it a GREAT candidate for smoke. It could handle the weight EASILY.
