Default How much does an IMPACT ARF cost?

I can't find the price on the website. Maybe I didn't click on the right link. Can someone tell me?
Thanks

I believe you need to call a rep to get the price. A word of warning. It is not an ARF. It does fly well though.

Interesting. And thanks for the info regarding this not being an arf. I downloaded the manual, and yep, you are right.

Mike

I am not sure if they are available any more. I think they are being phased out.

They are phased out to be replaced by the Integral - check out ZN-line's site. If you can find one, they are about $1k. Just sold mine last weekend though!

There's one on Ebay from a guy near Chicago. He also has it listed on RCGroups. Which makes it a little strange. Price seems right.

Yes, I am bidding on it. That is not a good idea listing it on Ebay and on RC Groups. He is very new to Ebay with only a couple of feedbacks, however.

I'm thinking there may be an Astral XX in my future! But it may be a wee bit more than I sold my Impact for ;-)

If it isn't an arf, what is it ? It's amazing to me that these days unless the airplane is ready to fly in less than twenty minutes it is no longer an arf. If you get a white one is it an arp ( almost ready to paint )

Most of my planes are ARB - almost ready to build.

The reson that this plane is not a true ARF is that you have to put the firewall in, 2. put the the landing gear in, 3. put in the wing and stab tube, 3. mount the canopy and chin cowl, 4. put the floor in and 5. in the case of the white version you would have to paint it. With a true ARF most of this stuff has already bee done for you. The impact is still a great flying airplane nonetheless. Good Luck
