I saw that on the Horizon site today. Good match for the DA-85.

The photo is not shopped, check out the horizon site yourself, but it's out of stock already

It would have been even better if the limited run had incorporated all the work H9 is completing on the 35% 260 e.g. hinges done, sealed etc. Also it does not look lie it comes with a hardware kit. So... that makes it fairly close in price to the 35% 260 and with a lot more work to finish on it.

Either way it is great to see it back again!

I would buy one in a heartbeat if it had the Breitling scheme like Highlight's Cap. I just love this scheme for some reason.

Is this limited edition run made from the same tooling? ie, will it be spec for spec the exact same as the original run? .

That would be my guess.

I've got an original with a BME 110. It absolutely rocks for 3D and will fly precision with the best of them as well. About a year ago I started buying up parts just in case.. Surprisingly, new parts were pretty abundant on Ebay. I wonder if there were a bunch of these still sitting in a warehouse somewhere. It's kinda odd that they're doing a 'limited run' 5 years after the fact with the exact same color scheme, etc.. The pics on Horizon's site are the same as the original release and the pic with Mike M. looks photochopped. Regardless, the plane kicks ass for all types of flying and I'm glad to see it back.

Here's some crappy cell phone vids of flopping mine around in the wind:
