Cougar should be flying soon. Just need esc, then I can get local guy to maiden for me and trim it.

Nice man, good call.

BTW.......... after your first flight of the habu 2 will will not regret selling it. Kevin wont be able to wipe the grin off your face for a week.... trust me.. big-time rush.

FYI - this plane is an ARF, only comes with the airframe, you must add all your own electronics.

Stock comes down to what you decide to put in it

I really wish i had taken the offer for the Habu 2

oh well..

$150 really isn't that bad, a buddy of mine just plunked down over $800 on a set of scale landing gear for his turbine.

I guess you can always put a set it later, good luck on the maiden.
