Love "Mello Yellow". Unfortunately Mello Yellow is owned by the Coca-Cola Company, and as the video below makes clear, you don't want to have to answer to the Coca-Cola Company: http://youtu.be/DUAK7t3Lf8s?t=3m16s Cheers, Gabe |

very much looking forward to this model!
the main thing i am concerned about is the range! i've had 2 champs - some of you may have seen this video of mine -
the one in the video (pre 2010) had much better range than what my 2013 champ has - and its not a one off - ive got 3 friends with newer champs and the range is also abysmal compared to the old champ. hopefully the micro radian has much further range!!!! also will as3x be an option to turn off? |

Bit strange about the range issues, my christmas champ has been caught in a thermal to a couple of hundred metres up without issue (beyond it flickering into and out of view). Stock TX was absolutely trash when it came to range, i used to have to take a few steps flying within a footy field.
But my ASK-21 has been properly glider high, i have no doubt that its functioning range is well beyond that of its practical range. You won't be sending the umx radian up to 500m, but it will work there. Any further range is pointless. BTW, your champ and radian vids are great. I never knew the radian had the gusto to hang on the prop like that. If you get a umx and come up brissie way, i know of some good speed bumps to slope. |

This make a wing load of 6.6g/sqdm (ASK21 was 12g/sqdm) Maybe it need calm days with less wind but it should thermals very well. |

Preorder
I've never preordered from Horizon, and I want to preorder the UM Radian. Can anyone here answer my question? If I add items to my preorder and get the sale amount over $100, will it qualify for free shipping?
I sent a message to HH but haven't heard back from them, and I'm not a real patient person. |
