I have a Hirobo Stream 50 pattern type plane. Excellent quality, flies great!

Yeah, Sky Trend MAX 40 ARF (my first ARF ever!) . . . Easy to assemble but I needed to make few changes on the pushrods, elevator rod exit was too tight, elevator horn was hitting on the rudder (on the high position), nose gear a little too sensitive (rod exit off by 1/8"), 2 out of 6 wheel collars stripped when I mounted them, 2x e-z connectors on the main wing came loose after 7-8 flights . . . . . It flies great though . . . . . But I won't recommend it for a novice that doesn't know how to correct a ARF kit and assumes it's all good out-of-the-box . . . I'll give it a 6.5/10 on Quality & a 8.5 on Flight Perf. (I didn't dear yet to pull anything out-of-ordinary w./ it) . . .

IIRC Hirobo ARF's are made by EZ/OK Models
