I bought this and electrified it with an NTM 50/60 270kv, Turnigy 5000ma 6s and an 80A ESC and it pulls about 30A on a 17/10 prop. It makes a brilliant Trainer, you can put on tick over at height put full up and it won't tip stall, it just descends slowly. If you start to throw it around it will do stuff but having a flat bottomed wing it doesn't like inverted although it does inverted spins it only spiral dives the right way up. I've also towed gliders up with it. The only down side is the dihedral brace which is definitely on the fragile side as I found out when hearing a cracking noise during a manoeuvrer and discovering a split in it on landing, but to be fare for a Trainer I give it a hard time.
A Cracking Plane (hee hee).

I bought this and it is a good deal. I like the plane. It flies great. I made mine electric. 6s lipo, 4,000 MAh. 100 amp esc no bec. and a G-46 turnigy motor. Really, only pulls 60 amps with a 14x 7 apc prop. Good vertical. nice flyer, touch n goes all day long. go pro platform too. This is a quality arf. Nice tall landing gear for those larger props. I love this plane :)

Dont get you hopes up too much with this model as a 20cc gasser......very similar in size to the 60 Boomerang and boomerang is of a more solid construction, the falcons fuz is about 100mm longer and slightly shorter W/S, i think the falcon is more suited to a glow or an electric set up as i believe a 20cc gasser will eventually shake it to pieces, i have built both planes and put a NGH 17 in the falcon and it does fly nice and is a real gentle flyer but had to strengthen it up in alot of places to stand the rigors of the gas engine

Yesterday my Falcon Trainer arrived from the EU Warehouse. Although the package was a little damaged the model was ok. So nothing was broken and the model hat no dents.
