Alan, I would first like to say thank you for designing such a great model. It's refreshing to build and fly a Turbine model that performs up to and above the manufacture specs. I test flew it today at a place called FOD ( field of dreams ) it's a grass strip that is 300 feet long set in the middle of a hay field. The Boomerang weighed in at 29.98 lbs full of fuel, after a 40 foot roll she was airborne and climbing with considerable authority. After the normal trimming I tried a couple of loops and rolls, the aircraft handles beautifully !!! Now slow flight this is the area I'm most interested in since I have to get it back into a 300 foot strip with Hay fields on all sides. With 25 deg of flaps it slows right down but not quite enough to drop it in to our strip, next notch of flaps takes it to about 85 deg. PERFECT very controllable with no tendency to pitch, enough drag that you need a pinch of power with full flaps. Spooled and configured just the way you want it. Landing on the 300 foot grass strip is absolutely no problem, by the end of the day I was easily using 100 to 150 feet for landing. Thanks again.

Al,
Had three more flights today. Al this is the first plane I can fly by myself and still make it out. The landings are great. I feel on approach, I can go for a cup of coffee and return to see it on the taxi way.
I am thinking of selling most of the other planes and doing another one. Of course I have to wait for sanity to return.

regards and good flying,

Alan, My name is Darrel Hossalla and I live in Wisconsin (US) I own one of your intro's. This by far is the most fun I ever had flying Radio control. I been flying Heli's and fixed wing for about 12 years. I took the plunge in turbine and selected your jet...... This model is so simple to fly. My heart pounds faster on the way to the field than it does when I'm flying. Everyone at out flying field is very impressed. I WON"T be surprised if a few more intro's are ordered by my heli friends. Again, " Well Done Allan"

Take care

Alan,

I Bought the Intro off you a few months ago and I can tell you that it is the best model aircraft I own, it is just fabulous to fly, everybody here ( in upside down, boomerang tossing , prawn on the barby,crocodile man Australia) still can't believe a jet model can fly so easily.

So please tell me what I have to do to get in line for the new XL, I've seen it on your site and can't wait to get one.

Regards,

Glenn.


Hi Guys ,just to let you know that probably only a bigger boomerang can top this one ,,one word can describe this plane "outstanding",

Weight set-up one 1800 mAh on top of nose gear ,one 1800 mah behind firewall,and the ECU battery velcro on top
thanks again for a great jet model, I already had 11 different guys on the buddy -box,and they are all very impressed
