I saw a post a last week about someone putting it on floats. They said it flew fine...Scroll down to the bottom of the page and you will see it...

I built a pair of floats for mine out of blue insualting foam. It would be easier to buy a pair of 25 inch long foam floats. i mounted the floats to the landing gear and the rear float strut I bent and sanwitched it between sticky back velcro. Put one strip of the velcro on the fuselage where the strut attaches. Next put the the strut into position, and but another velcro strip on the bottom. this sandwiches the strut in between the two peices of velcro. It will let go in a hard crash but holds together well while flying.
