I don't think he ever went to production with them. All I have seen were the prototype pics a while back and an article were the prototype was flown in a demo outside USA borders, and I think it was converted to electric. Anyone have better info on this? curious minds want to know

Hans, Throttlestick. He had it down here in Chile a few weeks back and yes it is electric. It flies like a feather and with those big tapered ailerons it rolls like an electric drill. He told me they were due in a few weeks so that could still make them on the water. From what he told me they are definitely going to be released. I guess we just need to sit tight and see. Kiwi |
