I just got one...nice ARF...only thing missing is the flaps. Has anyone try to install flaps on this plane?
I agree with you that the only thing missing is the flaps, so here it is; it's really not that difficult to splice the trailing edge and retrofit. Upon landing, with half flaps deployed, the tail wheel just doesn't want to come down until the plane slows down to 0.5 mph : )

By the way, this plane flys as straight as an arrow with little to no trim dialed in, just the right amount of right and down thrust from the factory firewall set up, great job Cermark, thanks Steve!
