Forget what you know about foamies with this one. it is rock solid for a
foamie. Check out Dean's site at www.dragonfirecustoms.com
What he did was take the 3 views of a Black Magic VF3 and make it half
scale...and then tweaked it from there. it will 3d very well, but what is
the most suprising is how solid it is in "normal" pattern flight.
There was no discussion on it really, Dean will probably kill me for posting
this LOL it's a pretty well kept secret....but once you fly one, that secret
is OUT. Dean is just a busy guy and makes these sort of part time and has
watched me get SLAMMED over the last year or so, and is learning from my
mistakes.
Dean is picky, anal, and the quality is second to none. he also has some
cool indoor stuff as well, you should check it out.

PS I think he'll have one in Birmingham at Mike Wingo's contest this
weekend, anybody there should check this thing out, it's really neat!
