Andrews Trainmaster
 
I was just looking at ebay at NIB kits. I was surprised to see this kit currently at $154 with 3 days left on the auction. Kinda makes me wish I would have bought a truckload of these instead of putting the dough into my 401K......LOL

They were good planes to build and fly. I still have a strong fondness for the Mini Master myself, but you are right, they get big money for them now adays. Good Luck, Dave

A complete kit is available from Wing Mfg (Early RC). Great wood selection with all laser cut parts. $125 plus shipping but you have to call them as it's not listed on the website yet. http://www.wingmfg.com

The kit closed at over $200 !

Also saw a PICA 1/6 Mustang currently at $255. The same seller sold one earlier this month for $365. Not bad!

This Trainermaster only cost me five bucks but I had to re-build it. With all the monokote peeling I did, I don't feel that it was much easier or quicker than building from a kit! I got it last Fall and finished it in 2 or 3 weeks. It flys great with my old Veco 61 for power. The only thing is I broke the Perry carb on another plane an replaced it with a K&B carb that I had. It runs OK now but as great as it was. So basically, all I have to do is find another Perry and this plane will be ready for this season and will likely be one of my favorite models.

nice! I just found out the other day that Lazer works (mentioned above as a source for the trainermaster kit) has released a short kit for a sportmaster! Already got one ordered!.
