mini electric kit available......

[TonyThomasian]

Is there any small 38-42" wingspan 3D airplane kits available anywhere? I want one mostly becasue i never have build a kit, or covered any airplanes before. I think a small plane might be a good way for me to learn how to buil a KIT and how to COVER them myself.
thanx

I dont know what you are looking for but stevens aero makes some very nice aerobatic kits. this is a link to the aerobatic kits they make.http://www.stevensaero.com/shop/home.php?cat=253 I built the micro cap which was also my first buld. The plane goes together very straight with out the use of extensive building equipment. The edge is an unbelieveable flyer and is super light for a plane its size. good luck on your decision.

Radical Rc http://radicalrc.secure-mall.com/shop/ Has some nice kits available. From the Micro Stick with a 17 inch wing span for $27. To the Verti-Go with a 35 inch wing span for $69.

You can even get a combo for any plane with motor, or motor and radio if you want it. High Quality kits.

So which one did you like better the edge or the cap? I really like the looks of the cap. I have a mini edge from eflite and that plane is just not a aerobatic/3D plane at all, so i want to know how the cap and edge fly? Have you hovered any of them?
thanx

there is a video of the edge on that link i posted above. Ive seen some other videos of it and it does one of the best blenders ive ever seen. Ive also seen the cap fly. If i had to pick between the two i would pick the edge as the edge can be flown on a 3s 2100. The bigger cap requires more motor and battery. I can assure you this edge will fly much nicer then the e-flite edge from the many comparisons ive read on both. There is a huge thread on rcgroups about the Stevens Edge. hope this helps

I got to have a short fly of one of Stevensaero kits, I think it was the Edge. In the short flight th model felt instantly comfortable, harriers were great, rolling harriers were good too.

I could fly IMAC sequences with it too, and with more throw and less wind it would hover easy. In-fact I am ordering one next pay as soon as I figure out what motor I need to make it perform!
