Decided that I am going to get this plane and power it with a Saito 100. Anyway, I was set on the kit $170 but then found out that I can get the ARF for $249. The ARF comes with the fiberglass cowl/pants and alum. landing gear-all of which would have to be bought if I built the kit. My question is, does the ARF fly equal to the kit version in every respect?? There is no way that a person could build this Ultimate kit for the price of the ARF.

So, if the kit form of this plane is really that much better, then I will go with the kit, otherwise, the better value deff. appears to be the ARF version. I am set on the CG Ultimate by the way so am not open to other kits/arfs.

Thanks for the insight guys!!

I have both. Either version is a great flying plane. The kit can be built a little lighter, but I have flown the ARF version for three years and now have a Satio 180 in her. Last year I flew it with a 150, but want a little more power for nice round knife edge loops. Go for it. It is one of the best flying Bipes ever, IMO.
