Product Review (submitted on April 21, 2016):

This is a great little plane. If you want something simple to fly that you can have a lot of fun with then this is a good plane. It's design is a little simple but still flies well in 3D or as a bush plane!
Keep in mind the plane was designed with cost in mind, it's not perfect but if you tinker it's a great flier.


PRO
- Low cost, you can build the entire plane with electronics for the cost of just the air frame from TH
- Flies well, would recommend for a 2nd plane if wanting to get into Aerobatics
- Straight forward build if you have built EPP 3D before
- Seems to follow standard format for electronics in this size

Cons
- The EPP isn't the best quality, cost in mind it doesn't bother me
- Factory cuts are a little off, but not too bad
- Wings aren't really stiff enough, they sag a little.
- People report it's tail heavy due to placing the battery in the cabin, and the servos sitting too far back.

Biggest Con:
- The rear of the fuse is horribly loose and the tail flaps around when flying, takes away from the experience as well. This is commonly mentioned on the RCG thread. But can be corrected with stiffening.
