A Play Pattern Plane

[Bob Pastorello]

Well, it's a lot closer to a triple hundred bucks....but still a bargain, at least appearance-wise.  I would NEVER cover something, anything, as well as this one is.  And they even put on a highly-differentiated top to bottom color scheme so we can tell up from down.  Nice, thick wing, triple-taper, airfoil stab, huge elevators.  Has as much fuse side area as my Arresti, almost.

  Bobby, another friend is building the kit and has told me similar things about the kit. Only a couple hundred bucks for this thing. It's good value, and I hear they fly without mixing; even better

    Just a quick update, probably not news-worthy - but - I have my Excelleron 90 almost RTF, just waiting on the motor, then some minor stuff.  The update is that it seems even with the 1.20 I'm putting on it, it will still be around 8lb 10oz.  And it is a very well done ARF.  Covering quality, accuracy of all the pre-building is terrific.  Heck, they even have the wing dowels glued and the retaining blind nuts installed, with the wing pre-drilled for THOSE !!!  And it's all STRAIGHT !!!

    Figuring on first launch around T-day or thereabouts, and I'll post a little post-flight report.  But if anyone is looking for a first-class, easy-to-do "90" size pattern bird, you could sure do a LOT worse than this one.
