Help Me Decide!Heeeelp!!

[gforce]

Guy's I am at a crossroad here and I am about to go crazy deciding what plane to choose.They are both awesome looking machines!I have been building and flying Cardens for a long time and just decided that I want to do somthing different.First off,I have not been to active with the big planes for almost 4 years now,as I mostly been flying 3D helis.Just like anything else you get to a point and say,I dang sure mis flying my 40%er's.Recently I took one of my old Carden Edge540's out for a flight and relized how much fun I have been missing.Come the end of the year or possibly by Feb/Mar these 2 planes will be released in 40% and I am going to back order one of them next week.I know like my buddy here told me,JUST GET BOTH!,yea right and my wife will surely do me inThat may still happen but a little ways down the road.So please help me decide as both of these machines are beauties and I am just to weak to make a choice on my own,lolol!!However if anyone has the skinny on anyone of these 2 beauties,LAY IT ON THE G,man!

Thanks
Dave

Sbach are diff but I personelly think they are *****. But then again I like the looks of the yak 55s. The EG looks sharp, from that angle any way

[gforce]

The SBACH is different,no doubt!I guess that is why it stands out to me.I thought about a Yak due to the fact that they just fly awesome,Just wanted somthing other than. I am sorta leaning towards the Raven150 at this time but decisions decisions.Hmmmmm!Dang it!lol!

[heligrom]

Personally, I say either one is a good choice but if you order from Pilot R/C, get a custom scheme. It's nice to have a plane that stands out from the rest of the ARF's out there

For flight performance, I'd go with the Raven. Looks, I think the Sbach has the edge.

[gforce]

Well, I decided that I am gonna try the Raven150I am gonna B/O ASAP!

Thanks Gang!

I think the SBACH's are ugly as hell too. I always go with my gut feelings, yup, they're ugly. It'll probably grow on people, but I'll still think they're ugly. Did I mention that they're ugly? Well, they are ugly. What an ugly plane. Go with the Raven, those Sbach's are ugly. Go to Sbach's website, the fullscale version is just as ugly as the model. Take my word for it. Have a nice day.

SWB Arms Suck the worst company & products all brand new arms I just bought will not slide onto Hitec servos, all seven arms are made wrong. Never again SWB try better quality control, you have problems when China make better stuff than you guys, Come on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude, Pull your head out of your a$$. SWB arms are made like that. They will go on. But since you were so quick to post what a crappy company SWB is, I guess you made up your mind. Send them to me, I'll test them for you.

How did this get turned into a thread about SWB sucking?

First make sure that you have the Hitec variety and not JR (there is a felt tip check mark on the back of the package indicating which it is). Wiggle the arm around while pushing down until you can feel it lock a little bit. then making sure it is square with the servo case put in the screw and carefully draw it down by tightening the screw. The tight fit is on purpose and a good thing.

gforce I've been flying 40% Carden Edge 's now for a couple years and am in the market for a couple 40% ARF's that I can beat the hell out of.I too was looking at that Raven.It looks like a pretty hot machine.Color wise I'd go with the red and black scheme.
