Space walker 2?
#1
I heard somewhwere that the Space Walker 2 ARF was a pretty good second plane. Is this true or not? I love the looks of this plane and planned on getting one some day how bout a second plane?

The spacewalker II from Seagulls model is a really nice fier. I used it for my first low wing tail dragger about 3 months ago and never had a flight problem. I ran mine with a Magnum xl40 but it did fly sluggishly. I torque rolled it in twice after trying a Saito .72 on it and it just was way overpowerd. The model does say a .72 fourstroke can be used but I think it would be wise to go with a .46-52 two stroke for it. I did repair mine and now just stick with the Magnum engine for a sunday flier.

Finished mine just before Christmas, haven't had it in the air yet. This was to be my 2nd plane, but now its 1 of 5 I have. Only been in this sport 3 months!!!
The Seagull kit seems to be really well built, BUT, the instructions leave alot for your imagination to fill in. Had to ask several questions of friends while building it, as this was my first ARF to put together, started with an Arrow 40 Trainer that the Hobby Shop had already assembled when I bought it. Everyone tells me they fly great, hope they are right. I'm using the Evolution 46 motor to power mine. One thing I did, was put the Radio on-off switch & charging port in the floor of the front cockpit & not on the sides like the instructions said to do, looks better & should be protected better in the long run.
