There doesn't seem to be much action in this thread, so I'll post my views of the CMPro T-34. I just completed the maiden and second flight on Sunday and first off let me just say WOW! This is my third CMP plane and the quality is on par or better than the over-priced name-brand stuff. Hangar 9 and Horizon have lost my business by doubling their prices.

Some notes I have on the build; The manual is barely helpful. If you have built a few arfs then you should have little trouble figuring it out. The nose gear cables do get in the way once retracted so I used springs to take up the slack. I powered with an OS 56FSa (great motor) it swings a 12x6 triple at 10K rpm so it has plenty of power for this plane. The retracts seem strong enough for most improved surfaces, they're relatively short and the wire is pretty thick. The flight characteristics are absolutely beautiful. Once the gear retracted, the airframe smoothed out and it was an absolute blast to fly. I tried pretty hard to get a stall out of it, but all it did was nose down, no tipping. I guess that's a property of the "T" in the t-34 design.
