Poor quality : the EPP sucks up moisture.Poor manual for the build up. But flys like an Eagle !

thanks god I didn't bought this before the sales lol. I love how it looks and in worst case scenarios I have enough electronics to find which motor it'll need in case the original is weak. thanks for the cyber sales HK

Pour les francais... Amusant construire, cependant j'ai renforc la partie avant et la carlingue avec du balsa coll aux parois. J'ai aussi renforc la tenue du moteur qui n'tait que coll au foam. Il est vident que les atterrissages doivent tre parfaits sinon gare la casse... Le tout est trs lger et devrait planer trs facilement vu la grande portance des ailes. Le moteur tait dfectueux, je l'ai remplac par un que j'avais dj. J'ai cris HK ce sujet et j'attends leur rponse.
J'attends une journe sans vent pour le 1er essais

wow, good lift, better with a bit of wind, quiet and relaxing flight, suitable for all, generates interest and curiosity and it is nice to see. with the wind, it has an average flight half an hour ... if you want to relax as you fly this is for you

this thing is the best flying, and the slowest thing I've ever flown. Freaks the pigeons out in the neighborhood. they have left town....lol. the fuselage could have been designed better, by maybe notching the foam so its easier to glue together, but it was still easy to put together. glued the motor mount slightly down as per the reviews, and slightly right, flies great . I used 1300 mah instead of 2200 to keep it light. flight times are at least 1/2 hour. cant wait till summer,to thermal it. only issue I had was setting up the radio, had it backwards because I never had a V Tail before, Instruction were a little lacking. love this model, one of my favorates

Great fun and a relaxing flyer - few idiosyncrasies like difficulty in launching due to pitch up. should be stronger - recommend gluing balsa sheet over entire fuse before further assembly. keep it back from fuse edges to allow assembly of top and bottom, extra weight is a benefit -v light wind only. Wing definitely needs extra spars supplied spar is a waste of time add at least two CF spars full length .
