$90!
What could possibly make this worth $90 when there are so many quality foamy's way way under that price.

I think the kits look great and like no other foamy out there. Looks like lots of nice features, designs and trim not seen in other foamies. In fact, I think I just talked myself into getting one.
Good looking stuff you got there Tork, good luck with it!

RE: Copperhead Aviation
i knw the guy(s) who own the company and fly with them reguarly at our field here in harrisburg...Barry is a good flyer and he does put the plane through its paces. I am the only one who broke the plane so far and that as when i got dioriented bout 50 ft up and went nose down into the pavement ...10 mins later it was back up and flyin...the plane is truey worth the money.

RE: Copperhead Aviation
They'll be selling a bunch of them for sure. $89 is not a bad price for the plane. Showed several people and everyone is impressed. Prolly best designs since I saw the SlowFlyer.com stuff.
EDIT:
Just got off the phone with them, got an Extra coming my way. Will post pics vids as soon as I get it.
If you guys haven't watched the videos I suggest you watch this one of the Extra. Love the way it slams down into the ground and flies right away after the wind blows it over at 5:17 on the video. I don't think any of them $40 foamies will be able to do that.
