Has anyone tried this one?

I'm looking for something a bit larger than most of the parkflyer sized planes out there. But I'd like to hold the cell count to 3s2p until I have a better feel for how long these expensive Lipoly cells last. Are there any other kits out there?
Thanks

I've done a lot of reading on StevensAero kits, and from what I can tell they are second to none. The Groove is known as the smooth flying aerobat in the SA line of models. I don't think you'll find better. I'm seriously planning on doing the SA Edge 540 to warm up my fingers come Spring.

I've had the G480 for over a year now and it is awesome. It does have some roll coupling, which is not really that big a drama. If you damage one of these models you can buy the spare parts needed to repair your model. I'm in the process of repairing mine after a mid-air(new fuz and tailplane, wing survived unscathed). These models are so light no ARF can come close to them in performance or weight. It took me 3 days to build
I have just about finished the Edge 540 and i am looking forward to see how this one compares. All in all the best kits on the market

They do seem first rate. And it's getting harder and harder to find kits.
Too bad this one is not bigger. http://www.espritmodel.com/l_comet.html
