Description:

  • Size: Small (~15 in)  sized
  • Contols: 4 channel
  • Style: warbird
  • Features: AS3X
  • Battery: 150mAh 1S battery.
  • My Timer: 5:00

Modifications: Still nearly stock.  I have only had to add tape to reenforce the aileron hinge, because some of the foam was starting to break.

Pros:  Great small area flyer.  Handles light wind well with AS3X. Magnetically closed battery cover.  CG is spot on with stnadard battery.

Cons: Discontinued by manufacturer.  Uses “special” 4-blade prop, But that is used on a couple other planes as well.  No room to change CG for different battery

Opinion:  Awesome.  Even  flys pretty well inverted.

Issues:  Foam hinge on ailerons started breaking.

Hanger Status: Active.  One of my go to planes.
