    Right, Del:
    With a price tag of just $700 for an already-covered highly competitive airframe, it's sure hard to beat.  Probably one of the big advantages is that it's designed and the construction is overseen by active pattern competition flyers.
    Just my opinion; worth what you paid for it.

        One word answer: weight.  It's tough to manufacture a 2M plane at legal weight.  From what I've seen I'm not sure anyone will "get it" and figure out how the Focus II came in at 10lbs or less.

          If you "have" to have a 2M plane, how come all these manufacturers are cranking out these 90 -size ARF's with such alacrity???

  Where did you get $700 from?  The add had $349 for the price.  It looks like for just under 1K total you could be in the air and ready to compete.  Spend the other 351 on fuel, props, and contest costs.  I have that much in my Epsilon but I enjoy building as much as flying.  Anybody know anything about the Viper G202?  Would like to do that next.
