Of course, Extreme Flight have been announcing the 2 meter Vanquish for years now, and for years stating that it is ''AVAILABLE SOON''.
3D hobbyshop have also stated that they are working on something, planned for release this year.

But that is not really the point of this thread.
CA models already have the molds and tooling for the Passport, Visa etc. and want to utilise these to capture the biggest possible part of the market, including those customers that can't afford/justify the higher priced products, by offering a ''Budget'' version of these fine designs.

And that is all very good.

But as others have stated here, I don't think Chip is going far enough with the cost cutting. I do think that a large number of people are willing to do a bit of work themselves, including making/gluing formers etc., maybe even wing sheeting. (As far as I know, there are no formers glued in to the ZN line kits, but there will be quite a few Zigris models flying around the world this year. As delivered, they are just a big open, white fiberglass fuse.

Yes Chip, bring it on!
(What's the shipping to Norway?)
