Well, I've wanted one of these since I first saw it online. I finally found a slightly damaged one on eBAY and invested $60. on it.

Other than 3 crushed ribs, (easily repaired) and a little replacement covering the Tango should be as good as new.

I'm curious about comments made regarding the planes performance. I would think that a smaller airframe like this would be a "hack" flyer...something to toss into the trunk and have fun with...not serious aerobatics and the like.

It's nice to have something inexpensive, fairly nice looking and easy to whip around other than more sophisticated designs involving more inve$tment. I can live with all the neg's mentioned as I have other aircraft that DO perform the way I want them to. Expectations there are naturally, quite different.

I see the Tango for what I can get from it, (fun) not what the marketing department at Hanger 9 might extol it to be. Guess that would be nice though, huh?

I usually tinker, modify, adapt and recover ARF's...but not this one. I was looking for a fun plane and I think I've found it. I'll let y'all know.

Ed, might be a great review subject in an upcoming RCR!
