it falls short

no directions at all, had a hard time with the plastic bolts and screws as they were not round more of an egg shape so they were garbage, one of the landing gear was not plated and looks like heck so I threw them out and installed electric retracts. Hard for any person to build a plane with defective parts. The price at the time was good. using a 100amp esc 15amp ubc and a Turnigy 670kv at 14 volts to test with. The 90 amp esc that originally was going to use was a piece of junk and would kick out as soon after 1/2 throttle. we shall see what happens at flight testing.

I just got this and I love the price. Of note is the landing gear rod lacking the end piece that prevents the landing wheel from coming off. The ones that with the kit are too small! I am putting a EMP C5055-700KV 1450W 3-8S 80A on this aircraft. Should push 122MPH.

nice looking plane and the directions are ok, But here is the flip side, DO NOT try to use the recommended servos as you will waste money just like I did. yes you need a full size servo for the ailerons which I am going to use 2 TGY 4409MD servos. The elevator and rudders are another thing. try using Corona DS238HV Digital Metal Gear will fit the pockets but remember your UBEC has to be set for 6 volts otherwise you may have difficulties running them. Do Not forget only use 2 TGY 4409MD for the ailerons DO NOT by all seven. I am also going to modify the wings to except retracts which after installing and testing I will let you know more. You buy a total of seven servos if you are building a gas model. I am doing electric and most likely 18.5 volts to start.

Bought this as listed for a 46 engine. The FUS is for an electric version. not GLOW, the firewall is a motor mount for a 50 sized electric motor, goes together very easily and there is plenty of room for batteries. You need a higher KV motor to give you a choice of smaller props to fit between the tail beams .
