Speaking of the Seagull Edge 300S; I see a lot of info about them and Phoenix models, but hardly a single post on other brands. No threads are up on the new Great Planes 300SP, and I have seen little info on their Edge 540. The new Escapade got one review, but apparently not nearly as much interest as the Hangar-9 Mustang PTS. Do Great Planes models have issues with flight stability or quality control? Could their price have something to do with the lack of interest? Most of what I see here about Great Planes is either the Top-Flite Staggarwing or Great Planes Revolver. If they only make one aircraft (the Revolver) that people consider as worth owning, I tend to get a little concerned.
The Seagull looks nice, by the way.

I think great planes prices may be the main reason. My phoenix extra was $120 and the quality is outstanding! It's not a 3D plane, but is very aerobatic. The new GP extra 300sp prolly won't be discussed much here because it is a full blown 3D plane. Most people in here could fly one, but not sure if they could put its 3D potential to good use. I think MinnFlyer was actually building the jet looking plane that GP makes. The Hangar 9 arfs are the ones that I have always heard that are crummy birds.
