Has anyone built one of these yet, I'm sure someone has and I would love to see some pics of the plane. I'm looking at one for a winter project. Hey also they have a great price on them. |

I haven't done the gen IV but I did do a build on the gen III. It is a straight forward build, no challenges or issues at all really. I did my gen III electric with a Hacker A150 so I had to improvise a bit but in the end my CG matched the specs perfectly and the plane flew great. The only issues I ran into flying were that the rudder cables snapped on me twice and I would recommend beveling the surfaces of the cable hardware at the rudder to prevent this from happening. Here is a pic of my gen III as a dry fit.

Thanks- I just wanted to see some pics of a Gen IV besides the ones they have on the website. I'm sure it's looks great and flies just awesome, so if anyone has pics it would be greatly appreciated. The reason being I just waited too long and the Gen III is no longer in stock. |

I received the GenIV a couple of weeks ago. I just finished another build so I haven't touched this one yet. The pics I have are from shipping inspection. The fit and finish of this arf are great. The painted items match the covering perfect. I think there might be three wrinkles in the covering. The overall quality of the arf is awesome.
