...Will add that to my list...

I bet they have gotten these things even lighter now. The Seduction I built was the BEST kit I have ever seen/built. It was Somethin' Extra quality times 2.

This must be a fun little plane...I wonder how much it is?

Thanks for the heads up on this one. I would love to read a review of one with the Saito 40. To many planes the wife says, heck from my point of view from here on RCU, I have only started. ....excuse me, that must be her lawyer calling????

I wonder what they go for if you get them from Singahobby...

My Seduction would have $200 from MRC, or $150 from Singapore Hobbies. Maybe $60 for the little guy?

Something like a Pro .36 or even that Pro .39 heli motor would probably be perfect. The heli engine would be nice...I wouldn't feel so bad about a whole flight of 3D.

Wow... $90 for just the wood... Seems kinda expensive too me... But I like the looks of the plane.... I'm reading target weight is right around 2 1/2 lbs... Has anyone finished one yet?

I've been looking at the smaller fun fly planes. I like the Pen Knife and Taco, but this plane has more of a unique look. $90 is a bit high though. Now if the sucker weighs 2.5 pounds, that's another story.

Heck I'd put a 46LA on it. I had one of those on a 3.8 pound Lazy Cub, and it would all but torque roll it. It actually did hover on a MA 11x4. I have an old control line "tongue" muffler that fits the 46LA. The muffler weight 1/2 of an ounce. That gets me a 10.25 ounce engine that pulls about 6 pounds of thrust, and all for $65.

Build it and keep us posted.

Default Pilot Kits

I just finished building a Wildstyle, and have been flying a Seduction Freestyle for over a year. These planes both came out at the advertised weight (really light!). The wood in these kits was just awesome. For the Wildstyle, all the angles for the wood in the tailgroup was pre-cut, it built as quick as I could assemble and glue. Have fun with this one and keep us informed on the build up.

I'm not sure why these planes don't get the credit they deserve, but it's probably because of their price.

My Seduction Freestyle was $155 shipped from Singapore. That included the balsa and ply to build the kit along with a fuel tank and a spinner. That's it!

It was about $50 too expensive, but it's just money (says Chuck)!

The kit had the best wood I have ever seen. I could not have hand picked wood that was better. It was all completely straight, better than the best at my LHS.

The laser-cutting was perfect and everything was a perfect fit! There was absolutely nothing that needed to be measured, lined up, beveled, or sanded. Even with the worst instructions I have ever seen, it went together GREAT. It's just like a big puzzle. I've never enjoyed building an airplane as much as the Seduction. It was actually sort of fun to build! It was new and unique and I'm sure it's contruction still is.

It's a big plane! I think the wing span was 55 inches and the length was 60 or so. Looks like some .60 size airplanes...It was just over 4 lbs with a YS .63 and 5 standard servos. That's with two 24 inch extensions, 4-40 hardware, standard battery, and all that nice heavy stuff.

You guys can probably guess how well it flies!

If you want a .25 size FunFly, I'm sure the Fun Master is as good as it get's. You just can't go wrong with these kits!



Jon595, I would love to hear your opinion on the Wildstyle. I have not heard too many flight reports on it, just seen a few videos. How's she fly?

This link is for a build up review of the plane by the designer of the Koma Acro. Sorry but it is in Japanese.

Default Seduction Fun Master Kit

Hi:

I am almost done building Seduction Fun Master Kit.

The box says quality hardware bag but the bag contains only main gear and tail skid wire and screws for gear and 4 wood screws for the engine.

I expected at least CA hinges, control horns, and a decal sheet but not came with the kit.

The plane appears it will come under 2 1/2lb easily.

I and going to put Saito 40 and Hitec 81's and 85's

RED Z06,

Have you flown the Seduction FM yet?? How's it flying??

Also what Prop Ssize are you using with the Saito 40.

Cheers.

Duncan.

I have FuntanaS 40, UCanDo 30 46. Seagull Edge 540 also. For past few flyable weather, I only flew Seduction FM. Does that answer your question?

I am currently using Zinger 11x5 prop ( light weight ). I might try some apc props later though. It's huge fuse allows for most awesome high alpha kife edge in slow motion. You can do anysize knife edge loop. In a light breeze condition, you can do a spot landing with zero roll.

Default RE: Seduction Fun Master Kit

Hey red_z06,

Sure sounds like you have been having FUN with that SEDUCTION FM!!

I had the larger size Seduction kit on my buying list, but now I am surely tempted
to get a Fun Master instead, especially as I need an excuse to buy my first 4 stroke - (Saito 40)!!

I recently noticed that Du-Bro makes a nice throttle linkage via arm attached
to engine mount for easy connection.

I have a Morris Knife with MVVS 45 flying and also in the hangar is a Santich designed
Profile Hots which I origionally found in MAN Magazine & I scratched built it at reduced scale
(down from 40 in to 36 in wing span ) for OS FP .25 engine & 9 x 4 MA prop.
Needs more power.

I installed FMA 100 nylon gear micro servos which after one flying session caused my heart to
miss a beat or two....as I though......wow.......how long will they last with those big throws.

I planned to swap them for Mini BB Metal Gear ones, but haven't got around to it as yet!!
I plan to re- power it with my OS FX .25 & Kentucky Mousse Can....how's 18.8K with a MA 9 x 4 hit you!!

Hope you continue to have a ball with your Seduction Fun Master.......

DDriver.
