Dashpuppy......Where did you get the XCaliber? Did you get the Bu32 flying yet??
I bought my Xcalibur open boxed from a guy on RCG, should be here in a day or two.

I haven't flown the Habu32 yet, still practicing on the Habu 1 would like to get 20+ more flights then maybe try the Habu32.. Rather if i wrecked anything kill the foamy one. I really like flying the foamy one, wish i had 2 of them. Id like to also buy some more batteries for it. Right now i only have 2. 4 would be perfect.

Thanks, I am still getting used to the plane and the new radio. The Sprint feels like a good old everyday flier. Nothing special, but nothing bad either!

I decided to try the FrSky Taranis radio on this one. I have used their modules and receivers in my Futaba gear for a couple years now. The radio is just amazing!! Not very intuitive, but it will do anything ANY other transmitter will do and more. You can hear the voice wav files as I am flying.

Good all-round fun jet..........not too fast..........easy on fuel..........I can see why people like 'em.

It is just fast enough to make it interesting!! The colour scheme is definitely eye-catching.

Thanks again Ken for the video.
