Product Review (submitted on July 7, 2017):

So far I've tried the 48inch MXS, 48inch SBACH, the 39inch Hummer and now the 39Inch SBach.
For the money and quality of flight, this is a close second to the MXS.

Flight is better and more 3D then the Hummer (listed as 3d and SBach isn't - weird).
I liked the Hummer and noticed the SBach is almost the same. Wanted a second Hummer so tried the SBach. Now SBach is my new favorite. Better flight and more 3D - but a little harder to see.

The Build: I replaced the wheels with a little taller and wider ones from my local hobby store.
Bought the force 2206-1500kv motor, Hobbywing SkyWalker 40A ESC, longer servo wires for the two rear servos (TWP-SV-5057) and GForce 30C 1300mAh (RFI-LP-1871) batteries.
Glued with (no super-glue) flexible EPP Foam-Cure glue (leave to dry 24 hours for full strength)
Glued motor mounts, landing wheels and tail dragger with with Epoxy.
Added 2 ounces of sinker weights to the nose to balance it out. Center of balance is about 4.5 inches back from the leading edge of the wing (works for me).

Found the rear dragg wire and motor mounts are a great upgrade to the Hummers.
The motor/battery combo has lots of power to go straight up or pull you out of those "oops" conditions.

Happy, happy, happy!
