WOW, Too Bad It's Not an ARF / BNF!

Okay, I'm old and lazy! I don't build models like I used to do. But for old timers, like me, this airplane would sell like crazy if I could just buy it as an ARF / BNF! There is great appeal to a balsa model for those of us old enough to remember them. I think there's a lot of us out there: BUYERS! There's a market for this. How about it, Horizon?

Q: I understand this doesn’t include the servos, motor, etc. My question is whether the instructions include specs for the motor, servos, etc.

Q: What is the weight when completed?

Store Owner

09/29/20

A: The completed weight will depend on many factors, such as build technique, covering material, finishing method, equipment choice, and battery size.
Some examples have been completed at around 8 ounces (with battery).
