RE: Looking for a nice balsa kit. Suggestions needed.
This was my third plane, and my second kit. It was very easy to put together, and looks great. Called the Great planes rv-4 park flyer. Good size for a 400 size brushed/brushless power, weighs 22 oz with 1250 2 cell lipo. flys great, a good weekend flyer, and also handles wind great. comes with all hardware. $60.00. Just add electronics and motor. Joe

Without casting aspersions on the Great Planes RV4 another great RV4 model is the one from StevensAero. Terrific plane - builds straight and true - a cheap and cheerful brushless outrunner makes it perform pretty well. Provided you stick within the recommended loadings she almost slows to walking pace for landing.
