Hello Gents,

I am interested in the Phoenix Waco, but I am unfamiliar with Phoenix Models ARF's. I have seen a few threads on here and other forums about Phoenix Models and I'd like to get your input with regards to the quality of their ARFs as compared to Top Flight, Hangar 9 or Seagull. How well are Phoenix ARFs put together? I have both a YS91 and a Rimfire 80 siting here waiting for a home so if I get the Waco, one or the other will be going in it.

TIA,
David

If you are satisfied with Seagul's quality than you will be satisfied with the Phoenix brand.

Thanks for your opinion Tom. I know you know your airplanes. I heard the same thing from one of the guys at my field, but it's good to hear more opinions. I've seen a few Seagull ARF's including the Jungmeister and it is a decent looking kit. I still have to make up my mind if I will get one or not.

Take care,
David

I have just one Phoenix plane, the Funstar. Based on that, I would get more Phoenix planes. Quality looks very good on my plane albeit a simpler design and construction than a scale job. And this plane has been flying about 5 years, so longevity is there. You can look at my model gallery to see the basis for comparison.

Thanks Maukaonyx. I appreciate your input.

I don't know what you decided, but I just received mine and it's beautiful....
