Default One design combat plane?

Hey Tattoo! I'm interested.... signed "another Joe"

The HOR's are pretty hard to beat. tough as nails and will survive alot of club combat.

Only change to mine is I shorten up the length on the fuse to 24", which might be too extreme for new combaters. And I recommend foam wings. I also bury my gear in the wings to decrease the chance of damage to rx and battery from a mid-air.

I've gotten several new guys started on combat this year by handing them HOR's to fly... The flatbats are another good option, just a tad harder to build, but not by much. These protect your gear very well.

Nothing like losing a RX on the first outing to lose guys fast!
