I finally have one
 

It has been quit a few years since I crashed my Direct connection Tsunami. Then I saw Juno RC was kitting them, and the juno web site says .60 size coming soon. Then I heard rumor that Juno might start kitting the DC Ultimate kaos. I wanted one in the .60 size.
It has been nearly 3 years. The DC Ultimate Kaos .60 BNIB arrived Saturday. Bought it here on RCU . Stephen L. was selling all of his collection of kits. Airplane garage sale. excellent prices. I am sure some of you might of caught His add or even bought some kits from him.
So thanks Stephen It might be a while till i get it built but I will be sure to post pics. I have one kit on the board. and one that needs the throttle linkage finished and she is ready to go.

Glad to hear the good news! I look forward to seeing your fleet of DC Ultimate Kaos's.

Although I have yet to maiden my Tsunami which I started building 12 years ago (it didn't actually take me 12 years to build it...:)), others have reported it to be a very sweet flying machine. You may have caught a now rather long thread on the subject here:

When I heard that Juno was planning to produce a 60 size version I also thought that would be a great idea and inquired with Derek as to the ETA of the kit. I'm not sure where things are in the prototyping stage but someone on the forum (Andy) kindly sent me a scan of the 40 size plans which I wanted in order to build a small electric version (which I'm doing). In any case, thinking that one day I might build a 60 size, I scaled the plans for such a power plant. The Tsunami is a fairly straight forward plane to scratch build and by carefully choosing wood stock, it should come out quite light as the 40 size does. I'd venture it could be built to under 7 lbs with diligent lightening. If you're interested in the 60 size plan, you can download it from this post:

Perhaps it'll inspire you to build a 60 sized Tsunami!
