RE: What to avoid when purchasing a 90?
Well final plan after reading all of your input and talking with the banker err, I mean my wife, is to put the 90 to the side for now without taking anything off of it. I am going to either build the Venture 30 with parts removed from a older Hirobo Shuttle Plus which is currently supposed to be complete RTF (Futaba transmitter etc) or if The Shuttle Plus is worth flying (input?) I'lll fly that for a bit before I tear it down to use the electronics and engine on the Venture. All of that has to wait a bit though as one seller agreed to ship USPS to me here in Korea, but after the fact (he has my money so not a lot I can do) decided not to, so having to have it UPS'd to Maryland then shipped here, and the other would not ship to any PO boxes and my military APO address is technically a PO box, so again having to be UPS'd to MD then shipped to here. While I wait I will continue to fly and repair the King II and the Belt CP and use the simulator with a 90 series. Did pretty goods with the King II at lunch yesterday until the damaged/repaired landing gear gave out on landing and she rolled over.
Thanks again for all the help, this is going to be an experience...
