EXCELLENT ELECTRIC HACK

Strengths: Very well built, more seagull than usual flimsy Eflite. Rock solid handling and aerobatic capability

Weaknesses: None found. Problems getting Servos, but fitted HITEC standards

Overall: Excellent plane for anyone moving up from a trainer. Similar to Pulse XT. Bought as a electric hack for a break from larger 4S and petrol; fills the gap nicely.

FANTASTIC PLANE

Strengths: A strong plane. I haven't found anything wrong with it.Easy access to battery compartment.

Weaknesses: Trim needs tacking down but really a minor point. That was after 60 flights.

Overall: This is a lovely plane and would make a great follow- on to a high wing trainer.

EXCELLENT TRANSITIONAL MODEL

Strengths: A good package for the money, solid and straightforward to build.Foam core wing is tough. Easy to trim and fly, and will handle a bit of wind. Good manual too.

Weaknesses: Specified servos not available now, and requires minor mods to fit alternatives

Overall: Has taken me a step up from small foam RTFs and converted FF slow flyers. It's a sturdy and very useable low winger for the "improver" and is a real confidence builder.

FAIR ALL-ROUNDER/SPORT MODEL

Strengths: Quick to get in the air. Looks (a bit) like my ol' Gangster, flies almost as well but nostalgic memories always fly better!

Weaknesses: Roll rate on strip ailerons is a bit tame. No Pilot figure included - Apart from drones how can any plane fly without one!

Overall: Fair value for a quick to air sport flier model. I was seeking the long awaited 'Gangster ARF' (N/A at time of purchase) so settled for this not too disimilar lookalike. I use the '25' size motor which is adequate if not overpowering. The battery position needs careful attention/adjustment to ensure a correct C of G. My 2500 3 cell pack needed to be toward the rear of the battery bay. Quite a light model so gets bounced around in breezy conditions. Capable of all sport manouevres - loops, rolls, stall turns and holds inverted quite easily.
