hello,

I have a hobbico spetrum and i was wondering what people think about it. I think that it fly's pretty well. the only problem that I've had with it was the landing gear kept coming out. I used a retratable landing gear.

Do a search as there has been quite a bit of discussion regarding this plane. There were some issues with the "tailfeathers" so you will want to check to see if there are upgrades or fixes suggested.

Hi!

My wife had a Spectrum ... she loved it

She has a tendency of landing a bit hard, so after a couple of minor incidents I decided to put one of those Great Planes landing gears right below where the fuel tank sits (I had to reinforce the area with ply) and secured it nylon 1/4 screws ... after that the plane was just great.
