I have only flown the J-tec plane. It is an awesome plane. It tracks great, very easy to do a quality snap. If I was in the market for a new plane this would be my choice.

From the looks of those vids the wildhare is back in the game. Any plane has an equal chance now. I am just having lots of trouble reaching sd models. So that is what might take that one out of the way.

Hey Tom, no fair! You've got videos of Kyle flying. We could bolt a motor on a dog turd and he'd make look good Just kidding, all jokes aside, my uncle has three Wildhare's and he just loves them. I'm sure the 41% is every bit as good as the others. Great customer service too. Keep up the good work Tom.

All I can say is Tom will provide excellent customer support and Wildhare is an absolute great flying airplane, now only if I could fly as well as Klye!

Extra260, if you have any doubts on the Rabid Bunny 300, check out the 3 amigos build thread:

http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/f...ame-thing.html

If anyone is honest about the plane it's me. . I tell all the shortcomings and problems, as well as being honest about the buildup and anything I encountered. There is a lot of back and forth on certain features of the plane as well.

Have a look.

Yeah, I have been following that thread. If jason coul get back to me quick at sd then the deal would be sealed but I am leaning towards tom because of the service. Btw I now know that all the airframes are competetive so now it is a race on the service and extras side.

IMO the Rabbid RAbbit with it's optional hardware kit is a better deal, overall, than the other 2.

Just my opinion.

Simple question, if you can't get a hold of them to talk about buying a plane what happens when you need parts?

That is actually what I have been checking up on. I guess they are just having many problems with there stuff. I am just giving them time. It is now between the sd and wildhare. The jtec scheme is something I cant get over. I dont like the yellow. I am sure I will change my mind
