RE: Cap 232 Profile ARF "Subaru Style"

Its a very light plane, so you should be allright, you loose some vertical performane though. Change the gear though the stock ones aren't even worth the aggravation of assembly.

RE: Cap 232 Profile ARF "Subaru Style"

Flight update! This plane is HUGE fun! On the down side though, the new gear is way stronger... maybe too strong? I had a dead stick landing and the gear just clipped the top of the hay that rings...
