Default Planes Plus Tango

I have the chance to buy a Planes Plus Tango, but I don't know that much about it.
Is there anyone out there who knows anything about this plane, and give any info to help make up my mind.

Thanks Joe

Joe, I built one but never flew it. Wocketman, Todd, and I have become intimately familar with the good bad and ugly of building this jet.

I flew one in Florida in February and it flew exactly like a bobcat to me.

Joe, I have flown the same exact one Sean is referring to. I only flew it twice, and I fly a BC XL every weekend and I can say that it flies similar to a BC but it is not a BobCat. I would have to say it would depend on the price and the components involved, but should prove to be a decent plane.

Joe,
The Tango is a good flier, like George has mentioned.... Very Bobcat'ish. There are a few things you will need to check on the airplane. There were some QC issues with the production and led to some incidence errors. If you do purchase it make sure both wings are zero deg to the fuse root and the stab is zero to the wings. I would also caution getting this plane too slow at high angles of attack, I lost mine while playing with the slow flight envelope. Have a look at the video page on www.lov2flyrc.com for video of my last flight.... All in all, the tango was alot of fun.... you wont be disapointed with it as long as you take the time to correct any mis-alignments it may have.....

Todd
