Default CARF Flash

First flight on my new Flash, 8 to 10 MPH 30 deg cross wind, temp 56 deg, elv 5800 ft.
Engine P-80 dry weight 23lbs. On take off I used our entire 600ft runway to make sure I had enough speed, it took a lot more rudder that I would have thought to keep it straight. Once in the air 5 clicks of up, 3 clicks of right ail. The plane flew great; I could have flown out of sight on the vertical. Landing was with flaps and 10mm crow, the Flash came in noise high touched down right in front of me and used about 400ft of our 600 ft runway. What a nice plane. Thanks CARF George

I would buy one if Comp arf didn't want over $500 shipping from Germany to Cyprus. A three hour non stop flight. One almighty rip off.

Yes you are right!
The shipping cost that they Charge are Very expensive, for my UL they charge 800$ to Israel, and I wanted to buy Another flash they Wanted 700$ So I did not order.

Our comp arf dealer took our orders and got a container down of models by sea. yes it took more than a month to arrive but the shipping cost for my flash was only around 100$.

Check with comp-arf if they have the sea option to Israel, it will be cheap if your willing to wait.

I prefer air shipment

I just do not understand why when I ordered from Skymaster my MIG 29,It was a cost only $ 250 door to door by DHL

and shipping cost from CARF Are almost the same region At a cost of $ 800

Looks great George. I hope you enjoy your Flash as much as I enjoy mine. What elevation is the airport where you fly?
