Tom - have you tried a bigger prop on a slightly lower kv motor as a comparison? Just wondering how it would feel on a 16x8 for example. Seems like there is a lot of prop ripping in all the videos I have seen, especially in the hover. It's a non-issue with the huge power surplus but though I would ask.

Caught a few pics of Chris flying his at Nashville this past Saturday. The airplane is very nice construction, overall flying characteristics look impeccable. Jeff Williams

How much does the glow version weigh with the Saito .82 ? I've got one sitting around. I don't think Chris Hinson gets enough credit for his efforts in making his designs look "scale " . His designs look better than anything out there, while also being tweaked for optimum flight performance. Dorin Luck |

How has it held up with the Saito? Is the covering still on? I have an Inspire that flies freaking awesome, but the covering is peeling off, despite the fact that it is billed as glow airplane. Same thing with a Reactor. Is it true that it comes with a pilot, panel, and wing bags? (edit: guess it does. Awesome!)
