Product Review (submitted on September 19, 2018):

Such a nicely built airplane I got a second one. I wish I could I have flown it but I deviated from the manual and to undo some mistakes on the first I didn’t and still don’t care for the joiner wire between the elevator halves so made thenm separate but controlled by one servo. I pretty much replaced all of the control rods with Sullivan golden rods which worked out great and the servos are the power he 1501mg which are also great so far. Power comes from an os 75ax and radio gear is Spektrum dx8 g2. The airplanes builds straight and simple and the covering only needed very minor touch up. I did also put some 4.5” wheels on it to help in grass. Looking forward to some flight time this fall. If you are into sport flyers that are easy to build this one is a great starting point, if you have any reservations on build quality, see the other reviews as well. It is sturdy and well built. I did strengthen glue joints and added triangle stock to landing gear area and coated the engine and fuel tank area with thinned epoxy. I also installed 1/4x20 blind nuts with nylon bolts on the landing gear and wing bolts. Would hesitate to buy another
