Default RE: Old Christen Eagle II ARF....Need Help!

Articflyer, I don't want to rain on your new plane, but I would not invest any time or more money in it. Lion put these out right after EZ put out their .40 eagle in the late eighties. I don't think that there was one model that stayed in the air longer that 15 or 20 seconds. They absolutley will not fly controllable in any manner. The incidences and moments are totally screwed up. Do some research on it and you will see what I'm talking about. A very well known scale modeler tried to re-rig the thing once, and even he said that it was useless. Again, I'm not trying to dog your new airframe, I just would hate to see you waste alot of money and then get totally frustrated.
Good Luck!
