I just paid US$5.99 for a cup of tomato bisque that tasted too "chickeny".

RE: Expensive package ??

Depends, is this the one by Global Hobby?.....'cause I can tell you, you will not get it off the ground on a .45. That is at a minimum a .61+ model, mine had an OS 1.08 FSR. Flew ok, felt heavy. Bad quality wood.
Looked pretty in the air.

Tell you what, if it comes with a can of Tomato Basil Soup.....it's a good deal. Make sure it is Campbell's Hearvest Select.

That's funny, the other day I bought some chicken soup and it tasted a lot like tomato bisque but didn't pay anywhere near $5.99

That sounds like an ok deal to me. Reading this reminds me how simple the hobby use to be.

For me that is.. Now I pay that just for wheels and brakes. lol

Have fun with it. They fly good. I had a couple.

I am just wondering about the $5.99 soup. Did that come with a sandwich? You cant just have soup, especially for 5.99. Atleast some crackers? They should start a "soup" forum around here.

RE: Expensive package ??

Yeah, the $5.99 soup is currious. It had to come with at least some crackers or maybe a baugette. I think the "Soup of the Day" forum could gain some traction on slow days anyway..

The tomato bisque soup had meat (chicken) in it hence the $5.99 price tag

RE: Expensive package ??

No chicken, it said it tasted CHICKENY. Look it up.

Today's US$4.99 Roast Beef and Halvarti baguette was spot on, thank you very much.

If you didn't get the soup, or at least a glass of soda, then you should go back and ask for a newspaper and a coupon for Earl Grey tea. Buying a propeller is a good idea too. You could use it to whip the tomato soup in case it tastes like chicken. That alone could save you $5.99

Why do you keep posting this in different forums??? You have already had lots of good advice on the subject, so what do you seek now?

You say you already bought it. Isn't it a little late to be asking if the price is good?

02-23-2013 08:17 AM

RE: Expensive package ??

No, because i can return it.

Definitely return it. The kit itself is the only part of the package with any value, about 100 dollars.
Get a 40 size trainer kit such as SIG LT-40 or Great Planes PT-40.
