Ordered the Bridi XLT kit from them and it arrived within a few days. Quality of the wood and foam was super. Great people to work with.
XLT flies super like it was on rails and very nice speed with a tuned pipe.
Cheers,

Anything Joe Bridi designed flys great. The new company is a little disapointing though. I called to order a wing kit for the Utter Chaos and they told me they could not help me. The Utter Chaos is listed on the their web site as available and they are producing the kit!

It may be because that they only sell complete kits and not able to go into the partial kit business. It is expensive and margins are too thin for most folks to do it.
Maybe try again?

Check the cost on these kits.
Perty much cheaper for the whole kit than most wing kits.
Wouldn't you agree?
Anyhow,
I just wanted everyone to know that the best flying designed models ever are still alive.

I agree, the the whole Kaos series are probably some of the best planes ever designed. To bad they don't seem to be as popular as some of the current stuff. The Giant Kaos is an excellent value for a plane that size. I think the real problem is than few people want to actually build anymore. Heck, most don't even want to repair, they just buy a new plane.

Doesnt happen with the ARF's for some reason...

Unfortunately, Joe Bridi no longer makes kits. Some of his planes are being kitted by Blue Jay which is at the link in the first post of this thread.
I got my Bridi kits on Ebay.
