Ok, before everyone asks "Is it as good as a "crack"... Its better, why? Because I can get 3 or more of these for the price of one overpriced "name brand" foamy. After all, that's what foamies are all about, cheap bashing, taking risks that you wouldn't do with your thousand dollar birds.
This plane has great flight characteristics; fast roll rate, little coupling, and excellent pitch control with the flying elevator. Builds a little on the heavy side for the wingspan, go lightly on the glue ( foam tack is excellent!) Throw out the "Chinglish" build manual, and follow the thread on RCG.
My Setup:
Custom CDR Coolwind
GForce 3s 500-800Mah
Thunderbird 12A Esc
Futaba s3117 servos ( I had some laying around, but any inexpensive 9gr will work)
Gemfan 8x4
