Default Royal Cessna Citation question

Hey guys, I have a chance to purchase a built up used one but I from the limited information I have found it seems to be a poor flyer in the stock configuration. Does anyone have any updated info on it? Has anyone built one recently? I also thought I read the original price was around $200 for the kit

Seller is asking in the $700 price range for it and I get the feeling its a bit high.

I do not know how they fly, but $200.00 for the kit is about right. Good luck, Dave

I think I'd be more concerned as to where your going to obtain the engines and fans for it. Even if they are included in the $700 thats still a bit high. Everything has been out of production for some time. Sounds like the guy is trying to recoup every dollar he spent back then instead of trying to get used market prices.

I have been thinking about this and I agree. It sounds like it is a little on the high side price wise. Can you give us some info on the engine's? Thanks Dave

I have this kit and recently purchased the engines and fans. The engines I have are the K&B .21, but you can also use the MVVS engines. The fans can be purchased from Kress Jets
