color=#0000ff>I believe this is the Arestii that was designed by Bill and
Tom Bloodworth from down here. Bill is currently one of our top fliers
down here and I do know the 'actual' Arestii is a fine plane. There
are obviously differences once it was turned into an ARF...like you said a fine
back up or practice plane......BUT.......the ARF kits I have seen are a little
on the heavy side , and should you wish to use it as an FAI beast it may need a
course of 'Jenny Craig' for an afternoon in the
workshop.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff>Having said that, I must state that it has been several
months since I have seen the ARF version and the manufacturers may have altered
it slightly in the meantime to remove some 'fat'. I'm sure Bill and Tom
would have been in contact with the manufacturers.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

would expect it to be a big seller in the market at which it is
aimed.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

those that may be looking for a back up or paractice plane take a look at the
F3A Arestii from Kondor model products. It's a full 2M arf with wood
fuse and tail, and balsa covered foam wing. Reminds me of a USA Star on
steroids. Pictures not very good on website but is nice kit and for
$349.95 plus shipping not too bad. Check <A
