Hi Jeff, The company that I am going to get these from is one of the suppliers for big name companys. I ran across this plane and Though it was something intresting. As for the building of the plane I can send you some Pics if you will pm me you email address. I agree the scheme looks great.

That's great if you are getting some of the planes in. More would be seriously interested if more info were available.

You will sell far more planes if you ;
1) Post more pictures.
2) Post the definite price.
3) Post the exact weight RTF.
4) Post the exact wing area.
5) Post if replacement parts will always be obtainable.

Hey All I have built one of these, as I was thinking the same thing when I came across them Mid last year.
These guys build heavy thier 50cc Katana is rubish unless you like stally aircraft.

The 230 is NOT COMPOSITE it is straight fiber glass. the outer finish is fine and the construction looks ok, BUT the internal fuse is rough as guts and I think I left half my arm inside it (anyone who has working with rough fiberglass will under stand. This is not a injection mould process or sandwhiched glass like a Composite ARF.

The Canopy install is not in any of thier pics as it is WOFEL..... Could not be any worse....

Dont get me wrong it was still quite a nice plane. The geometry in teh supplied linkages etc was WAY out and you would need 24kg servos on all serfaces to get any sort of power to the surfaces (you could change this gear out tough).

I used a HH100T in it which was perfect to balance it and the lower power than a DA100 was about right spinning a Menz 27x10, it had un real pull... HOWEVER I never flew this plane... when I did the Balance check at the wing tips the wings flexed alittle too much for my likeing so I let it go...

Attached are some pics... I wont buy another..... Thats for Certain....

I hope this helps you make an informed decision...
