Default RE: Time for another new trainer

Wow! I had no idea exactly how much prefabrication was done to this ARF! MinnFlyer's review talked about it without really emphasizing it completely. The control surfaces are all pre-hinged, and the control horns are attached. The engine mount is attached and pre-drilled for a .61 FX. The fuel tank is installed and plumed. The pushrods are all installed and there are EZ Link connectors on the throttle and nose gear rods and L connectors on the elevator and rudder push rods.

This might be one of the quickest building ARFs on the market. I feel dumb that I don't have my servos sitting here, or I could build this whole thing tonight and fly it tomorrow.

My covering isn't anywhere near as perfect as MinnFlyer's review plane. It looks like I have some ironing to do, but nothing that should take much work. If you're looking for an ARF that you can get in the air quickly, this has got to be the ticket!
