My edge is at 18.5 lbs, but thats with an MVVS 58 which is 1.5 lbs heavier than a DA 50. So they are pretty light! Basically same weight at the TOC1 (AM) planes. You can't go wrong!! Seriously! (Unless I got lucky and got good ones.. but 2 good one in a row) When i finish the YAK I'll weigh it. I weighed the individual parts before assembly and they added up to like 12.5 or so lbs? (I posted a thing on the old site about this)

Yep Ebay, cheap. guy is ARF HOBBYMART I added alot of the stripes and checkers... the Blue and White are the stock colors. Blue is NICE in person... a metalic blue that is much deeper than it photographs.

YES KMP. and no they are not making them anymore. (at least as far as KMP thinks!) Don't know the story, don't care to. Like the planes for the price. Get one... DO IT! You won't be sorry!

these things are so easy, you just can't call it building. it's more like wishing it done. you don't even need to think about it. easiest plane i've done. i can see why there are no instructions.
