still4given are you talking about the VQ model or the nitro planes model above?
Hi Spencer,
If you are referring to post #54, I was talking about the Nitroplanes Zero. I have built three of them, mainly because there were cheap, but they actually fly very well. The first one broke when I cartwheeled it trying to land it dead stick in a cross wind. The second one snapped the wing when I flew it on 60% nitro after too many rough landings and gear mount repair. It comes with retracts and I think I busted up the ribs on each side of the gear blocks with too many hard landings on our old dirt field. I'm much more careful on landings now.
I'm not real crazy about the VQ models. The covering is not my favorite and it gets to looking funky right away. The wing design makes for a good sport flyer but too sluggish for my liking in a race. The Nitroplanes Zero is fun to race. It is pretty quick considering the draggy fuse and very nimble in the turns. Way more work to build because of the poor hardware an fiberglass fuse though.
Blessings, Terry
