It's still not too late to get yourself on line for one of the many really nice, high quality 2M offerings from Chris Moon @ F3A Unlimited. They range from kits to ARC .

Building has its rewards.

Try to score a Fliton ... some planes from the 1st batch were built over weight so try to weigh the fuse and the wing to verify. It was an error they say that afflicted some planes from their 1st batch.

Fliton has a 2M offering in covered balsa for a good price. I would have got it but was turned off by the 1-piece wing (small car, bla bla).

There will probably be a 2M GP Sequence before there is a 2M Vanquish.[&o]

With the new crop of Valiants and Visas and other offerings, I would imagine there will soon be some very nice Brios and Integrals for sale as the weather warms up....

I had thought about the Integral and the Valiant..
I really dig Bryan's take on things and his no bull attitude.
A real stand up guy....
Obviously there is a difference in price between the two...

Does anyone know if the Itegral will be discontinued??

Hello,

A little off topic, but I am sorry to hear that Fliton decided to close up shop. I am currently putting together a Extra 330 free style I bough four years ago and the plane is very nicely put together. What a bummer. After putting the Extra together I was thinking about getting the larger Inspire, but they seem hard to find.

Bill ... time to email them to see what they have left in the factory store! Hehehehee ... I only like their Extra 330 Freestyle, that's about the only plane I like. I still got on NIB in the hobby room

Teo ... I was not impressed by the Inspire's built when compared to the Extra 330 Freestyle.

If the Valiant comes to your LHS at < USD700 then it will be rocking. Not to forget there is going to be a GP and EP version too. There is hardly any 2M at that price range. No need to think about dishing out USD1,500 for a nice pattern plane!

Valiant???
That is a Comp ARF 2m COMPOSITE (Bryan designed it) and goes for 2000$ USD...
I would buy 3-at only 700$...

Are you thinking of a different model??or manufacture?
