Default JETCO XL

Hi all, does anyone have any information, opinion or has built and flown this plane? I am led to believe it is a new larger version of a previous Jetco and am interested in aquiring one as my next project. Any feedback would be appreciated.

No one knows this model?

It still has a reasonable price, 499 euros.

Hi guys!

We have built the Jetco XL and have flown it for the last two years. Great value but a builders kit. There is some building involved, but it was a lot of fun. It is very aerobatic and definitely something "extra" in these ARF clone-days.

BR,

David

Hey!
What size is the engine? PAF home page tell size 80 and up. I have a merlin VT 80 who need a home, do you think it will fly with a VT 80? What is the weight of your model? Is your wings covered with fiberglass, paint? Would you recommend the model as the first jet?
Many questions?
Does anyone
Regards
Sejenssen

Strange this thread should suddenly burst into life since I first started it nearly two years ago. Mine has a JC 140 in it although it would probably fly on a JM 80 It is a big plane so check it out first.

Matsouka,

My German building instructions (web-translated to English) that I gave you, with the kit, not good enough?

Thanks
