Arrived very fast. Don't think I would call it 90% built though. Assembly was quite easy even though the instructions were the usual waste of paper. If built straight from the box the dihedral is a bit much and the weight distribution is quite tail heavy. Anyone know the cg? I couldn't find it on the "instructions". Looks good finished but I haven't had time to maiden it yet due to bad weather. Looking forward to sorting it out.

I really love this plane now that I have made some essential mods and tuned it. Since it is small and light it makes it a challenge to fly it nice and stable but sure looks good when making low passes! See my video on canopy, dihedral, and aileron mods: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HIhb9HvWjY

With a 5030 and 360mah Rhino battery, I get just a little bit less than 30Watts at about 4 amps. Netheir the motor or ESC seem to mind after 7 flights. Don't know if they run hot (unaccessible) The motor could likely use a few ventilation holes. It doesn't fly too good inverted (again, too much dihedral). VERY FAST with the mod (Did it before second flight, didn't like the look of the 4025, as it looked too small for the plane)

5 Stars because you get a C10 motor, servos and ESC so basically the plane/foam is free.



Original battery: 13.3 gr

Prop: look like a 4025

Plane ready to fly: 92.7 gr

Con: Too much dihedral.Slightly under power for it's weight with original battery and propeller. No adapter for my AR6300. Need to land under power but not done tweaking (only 7 flights)



Modifications: 5030 prop and 360mah Rhino



Pro: With the mods, this plane fly great and FAST
