Default Carden Cuda...What do you guys think about it?

Hi guys,

I am considering getting a carden cuda as I have a Fuji 50 lying around that is looking for a home. I was wondering what you guys thought about the carden cudas including the way it is built, set-up, etc. I also wanted to know if anyone had any video of a Carden cuda flying that I would be able to watch.

Thanks,

Neil

The Carden website has a video (I think) of it flying and a build thread, too.

The Cuda is a amazing flying plane. However...I feel that the kit is extremely overpriced for a 50cc plane....Carden or not, but I would question your Fuji 50. If possibly, step up to a more powerful 50cc class engine, but I wouldn't question the plane. You will absolutely love it.
