The extra spent on the Jet Central Cheetah just paid for itself and then some I'll only be buying JC from here on in

A HUGE to Eric at Jet Central.
I agree 100%. Very happy with my Cheata and Eric is excellent to deal with.

Glad you have it sorted out!!!

we sold ours but flew deans last year on a p100 and it was fun very light and slowed up nicely , we have a buddy with a 140rx in one and its nice , its a stout airframe and will take a beating at less doh than a bandit. they are nice but more cost up front imo the flash is everywhere near as good and they have neat new schemes too , Andy has been good to deal with and so has Ray so pull the trigger and get it going

I'm leaning that way Kevin!! Plus the Dreamworks trailing link electric gear from the Elan is a direct bolt in from what I'm reading

I'd put my Cheetah in it, so between yours and Paul's

LOL!! Ya - crazy power for sure!! I think that helped with it's demise, LOL.

I had it dialed back to 27lbs for the first 2 flights, but it wasn't doing it for me. The 34lbs was a real HOOT!! That's why I'm debating hard about the Elan vs just getting a BMV Bandit or Carf UltraFlash.
