Hitecman,

I have had this plane for about six months and I really think it is destined to become a respected and sought after plane. I have a number of planes and fly all of them but, this one is always fun to fly. Mine is equipped with an OS 46 AX and it is a perfect match - it has exceptional power. It is a quality kit that goes together very quickly and without any hastle. I epoxied the tail but I have left the wings halves unglued and held together with just the aluminum tube, dowels and wing hold down bolts.

It has good ground handling characteristics, excellent fast or slow in the air and lands like a kitty cat. The only parts that I would change are the main mount axles which are soft threaded metric bolts - eventually they elongate the inside of the wheel hub and also tend to bend. The wheel pants add a nice touch just be sure to use thread lock.

I am flying mine with a JR 9303 using an XtremeLink 2.4 ghz spread spectrum TX RF module and receiver and all Hitec servos. Excellent choice for a fun plane that is solid quality and reasonable in price. One of the nice things about this hobby is that you do not get socks or ties for Xmas or your anniversary.
