[askforplanes]

Anybody?

First I have seen of them. They are some nice looking birds and decent prices!

It sure looks like Nitro Planes has ripped off the design of the 84" Wild Hare Edge 540T. Different cowl and canopy and all the hardware is different but the wood parts look to be identical.

Just FYI one of the (former) employees at my builder made off with computer files holding the CAD plans of some of Wild Hare's planes. Now I know where they went.

Probably... they are too similar. (one on top is nitroplanes, bottom is wild hare)

so what your saying is it a good plane then sorry tom cause we all know wildhares are good planes!!!!

[askforplanes]

Too bad wildhare got ripped off like that.

[joeo78]

I think you could say more accuately that the design is good, however I don't think I have ever seen a nitromodels where the quality was good.

the way to stay ahead is to constantly improve the design.... so the intellectual thieves always have "Last years Model"

I had one of their little Yaks and I was never so happy when the elevator flexed in a pullout and it snapped and went straight in and broke every piece of it including all the servo gears.....I caught it a couple of times but the last one got it......It was the most fun I have ever had crashing an airplane...

True. That's a 3 year old design, our newest planes are always way ahead of the thieves.

Also, they stole the wood parts but look at that hideous cowl. Nothing else is the same except the frame.

I'm not really worried about this, if someone wants to save $140 they get a 3 year old plane with no support, terrible glass work, and suspect quality of construction. And I'm pretty sure you get the dubious honor of arguing about shipping damage with somebody who sudenly does not speak english.
