Some speculation without direct experience.

I have this plane and people have purchased a couple of them from me after I've put them together.

They are excellent flyers.

They actually float in and the only problems with landings is getting them down, because they want to keep flying.

The wing loading is pretty low.


The hardware included is also not bad. Robart style hinge pins are used throughout.

An aluminum bell crank is provided for the tail.

The smaller .50 sized version is also a bargain, it includes CF landing gear, etc.

This is one of the better CMP planes, though I hate the "alien" scheme.

I do advise applying Top Flite Clear Coat on the covering to prevent the paint from cracking.

The paint scheme is applied over the China Coat, so the clear coating is a good idea.
