Yep I am, I usually use the search but it was before school and I didnt want to. I followed that thread since it started. The way kyle makes the bird look makes me want it.

dont worry my mind changes so often I might turn around. But the deal I have with my dad is going to be hard to break. But if I do decide to turn around the wild hare will be it.

So, have you actually received any of the planes you decided on yet, LOL! I saw in an earlier post that you just ordered the SD, then you were reconsidering the WH, and now you are getting a compy 260 without it ever being an option in your poll???? I still wonder why you didn't consider the AWX 260. You could have driven up to Aurora, CO and picked it up yourself and saved on shipping, plus it is Top-of-the-Line...

I was going to order the sd and we had it ordered but we didnt know the shipping was 280. So we canceled.

I have 30 flights on a TOC Yak 37.5%. I must tell you it is the first plane I have ever flown that didnt need any trim not even one little beep.I set the CG up as recomended and its perfect for 3D.I tell you there is NO coupling in hi alpha knife edge at all! Roles on a wire .Snaps stop on a dime too.This is the first plane I have felt conected with on the maiden.My fellow club members where all clapping.They thaght I had ben flying and practicing with it beforhand.Im geting another!!!Call Troy Built Models and order ya one today!!!
By the way I also fly the J-Tec 330.I have 100 flights on it and I am still playing with cg and coupling,thrust angles.Takes some work to keep tracking in hi alpha KE. Its slow and dragy , pulls out of a hover like a slug.Snaps are lathargic .Just never got that conected feeling . But despit all of this I would probly buy another one some day.I have a sickness with this hobbie.....

I have been flying the SD 260 for about a year now and I am very happy with it. The plane is built lite and strong. I have had to do very litte mixing on this plane and it flys excellent. Good support from SD also.
