Looks great! I did a search for "RC Sun Pioneer" and gave up on page 3, is this a fiberglass ship? Which vendor/website did you order it from?

Cool looking plane! What was the price? I don't need another (repeat 10x) but I like it. 4 servo wing and no elevator. I want to be the first one on the local field with one of these!

Caution
I have not yet received this kit and despite an email advising that the EMS tracking number would be sent to me last week, I currently have a communication black hole. Waiting on a reply to my latest email sent this morning again asking for shipping confirmation. Would suggest caution in making payment to this vendor until I actually get this kit and can post details Regards Tony |

I like it a lot! 2.45 m wingspan. It has a very cool shape, the yellow is very, very nice!
How much is it? |

The kit was US$100, ARF $170.
EMS to Australia US$70. All a bit academic though until I actually receive. Will post when have some result. Cheers Tony |

I assume kit is foam parts, ARF includes servos (6, right?)
Thanks for sharing your information. It's a neat looking plane and we wish you a speedy resolution and successful maiden flight. |
