A good Pattern Plane

[Rodney Tanner]

M2CW
I have heard good things about Quest 90 from Creek
Hobbies. Hav´nt been able to find out info. on the
weight yet. ARFs still tend to come out on the heavy
side. 
I have just had a "Desire 60" (all balsa), fixed gear
delivered from the builder, as a trainer plane. 
Comes out at 7.5 lbs. with an OS FX91, S-header and
Hatori pipe. APC 14x10 at 9,600 RPM on 15% fuel.  
With JR coreless servos the total cost was around
$700, less if you build it yourself.
