Default Electric Grumman HU-16 Albatross

Hello,

Just thought I'd put this up front for everyone to see so it's not buried down below. Seems like people have been looking for this plane since Hobby Lobby dropped it. One can get an electric
HU-16 Albatross from www.eam.net (Electric Aeromodeling in Texas). Go to there multi-engine category and you should be able to find it. I believe this plane is made by MVP Modell out of the Czech Republic.

I'm also interested in purchasing this plane but wonder if anyone out there has any experience with it? EAM mentions that water handling can be a problem. With motors and electronics, this plane could push towards or beyond the $400 mark. If I'm going to make this kind of investment, I'd like to hear from anyone who has experienced it first hand.

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Fast Freddy

Go to www.ezonemag.com, select the discussion link and then search for "HL Albatross". There is a lot of info there.
