i've got one with 100 plus filghts on it only thing we didn't like was the landing gear set up very hard to fix if you have any repairs to do we got rid of it and mounted a flat plate and a set off a mid west extra no more problems flys well harriers are better inverted but still cool bme 50 is alittle weak hovers ok but no warp escape speed would be better with a da 50

Flatfuse' BME looks even better in person. He did one hell of a job. And it flies as good as it looks. The walls are some of the most violent I have ever seen.

I believe the number is a 86S-t. I got mine from Troy Built Models. Do I get a free plane from Pacific Models for answering your question?? Just kidding...

I'll do it...Thanks Frank! Hey how the heck have you been? I have not seen you around in a while. The winter is almost over and it's about that time to clean out the cob webs from the flying wires.

Hey Frank,

I hadn't been hiding but been a little busy over the last few months. Yes, we have some sweet new stuff coming and I can hardly wait. Going to try and get out this weekend provided the weather will cooperate. Been a harsh one this year as normally I can get out more. Glad to hear your still at it. Looking forward to a great summer.

Ken
