Bud, Yes that is a Byron Husky, one of three that I have. I fly this one on floats in the summer and then on wheel skis in the winter. I have another down in the Lower 48 at my son's house that is on wheels, and another in the box yet that I plan to build this winter. We are lucky up here to have a lot of lakes that are excellent for model flying. This lake is in a subdivision where a fellow club member lives. Also it is a subdivision that has an airstrip behind it for wheels and on the lake are about a dozen full scale float planes. The lake is about a mile and a half long and a little better than a 1/4 mile wide, a perfect spot for any type of flying!

What's that song..."Who could ask for anything more" [8D] I should have bought the husky years ago when I had the chance, always been one of my favorites. I always wanted to see Alaska too but alas [] Gotta go pout while I work on my DPM cub

That's why I waited to get one Nony, was tempted to get the H9 cub when I tripped over one at the LHS but I decided I wanted the DPM cub and waited 7 months to get it after I ordered it. Well worth the extra $ and the wait. Best ARF i've seen so far. I even went and bought a new receiver and servos for it and a 3000 and 2200 mah batt's from SR for a redundant system and an O.S.160 twin. Had to sell a bunch of stuff to get it but what else is new? I should be good to go come spring. Here I am a builder making the switch to ARF's but I still have my proctor jenny to build someday. Gads!! [X(] I still have to finish my BUSA cub!
