<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>LOL!! I like it in a twisted sort of
way.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I said my piece on RCU (albeit a tad
forcefully, but what else would you expect). The only things I would mention
differently would be to include both the Panacea and the Symphony in the
"that's more like it!" category. Granted I have no idea how either one
flies, but they look right....or very very close. And the price is not
stupid. Also the Mantis looks acceptable, except the one piece wing is
something I don't personally care for. Not that it's a badt hing, it has
it's advantages, but I prefer a 2 piece wing for myself. From what I've
seen, the quality is there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you read that thread, you'll see very
clearly what the problem is. Overpriced, lousy and non existant support, and
they won't admit it when there's a problem. How else do you get something
fixed if you're not allowed to say that a problem exists in the fist place?
But certain individuals will be fast to tell you if you don't fly one, you
aren't good enough. That one alone makes me choke. And it riled up my
temper, and makes me SO much more determined to be successful with a plane
that is NOT made by PL or ZN. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Guys, fly what ya want. If you want an $8000
plane, fly it. If you want a pile of sticks, carve it and FLY IT. But don't
tell someone who's making do with something different he's flying a "roach",
or that he CAN'T make it a certain weight. Never ever tell a living
breathing determined human being that he can't do something, because he WILL
do it if he has half a pair.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Personally I do have something different in the
shop, and I hope it will serve me well. But the main problems I have with
the european kits is the ridiculous price tag, the lack of support, and then
the utter REFUSAL to take responsibility for thier own screw ups in MANY
MANY cases. Good luck to you who need parts, let us know how it turns
out.</FONT></DIV>
