I was looking threw chief aircraft and saw this 35% 106" extra, Looks pretty nice. I've owned a few other kangke planes in the past which where all really nice flying and the construction was excellent. Anyone know any more info on this bird? Could be a contender with GP Cap 580 for a budget builder. Chief has them for $550.00

I just got through building one. I am a Kangke dealer but I wouldn't give it high marks. Not the worst either. Just kind of so~so rating. I would not do it again!

Hey guys, Im the Kanke Aussie dealer. Personally i'd go the kangke over the GP for its 3d capabilities and also for the construction quality. I would bother. they are excellent |

Actually....... NO, I am still not thrilled with some aspects of the design but it came in VERY light (just under 27pds) and it flies GREAT! A real shocker to be honest. Best flying plane I own.
