That looks awful familiar. What are you going to be using for power?

Buddy of mine ( sprice50) has one. Pleasant plane . Very surprising. For the price it is a real deal. I know you will be happy with it. It really does fly a combination of sequence and 3d. Not a specialist at either but a very nice blend of the two.
It seems to fly larger than it really is as well.

Good choice for this size of plane. You can set it up extremely inexpensively as a gateway to something larger. We are running a Moki 210 with Hitec 645's all around.

I am building one also. Putting a Saito 220 in it.
Did anyone have to add weight to the noise to get it to balance with the 220?
