CAP 232 : 15 size engine
Hi all, Richard here
Im living in Hong Kong. I resently saw a ARF CAP 232 15 size eng (not included) aircraft for sale in the shop. The price was $700-00 Hong Kong usd $ 90-00.
1: is that a good price
2: how does it handle
3: has anyone done a review on the A/C?
Thanks all

I think the price is about right if you are talking about the Hirobo version. You can try Galaxy (852) 2615 2290 to get another quote. I think they carry all three of the Hirobos.
Personally, I wouldn't go for a .15 unless you really want that size. They are not so stable and become a handful with any kind of wind. What level flyer are you? If you are a decent flyer with transportation, you can consider a Ramber 30 from Radar or a Supersport 30. They are relatively small planes that are a pleasure to fly. In fact, just tell me what you're looking for and I can give you my .02
I am also in HK and my recommendations are:
For quick building kits, go to Radar... they are definitely the best.
If you are looking to buy into the hobby, I'm selling some of my planes
World Models Zen 50 w Tigershark .61 and Futaba servos and hobbico retract servos. 36mHz tx and rx from Futaba. I have the skysport or 6XAPS. All in good condition.
World Models Piper Cub .26 w OS 30 fourstroke. Futaba servos and 36mHz PCM rx from Futaba. I have the skysport or 6XAPS tx. All in good condition.
CMP Cessna Skylane with ASP .61 fourstrike with China servos. 36mHz tx and rx from Futaba. I have the skysport or 6XAPS. All in good condition.
Kyosho Corsair F4-U New In Box.
I also have a loose Tower Hobbies 75 New In Box if you want that, too.
