Well, this is the best place to find out what you need to make your wallet lighter: http://www.rcgroups.com/high-performance-9/

Icare carries a few airframes, and soaringusa.com has a whole bunch. The Sunracer seams to be very popular, so maybe check out the thread on that one.

Well Greg, you should when you have time shoot me a link or post a link to a rig like yours fully decked with what I'd need. I'd love to set one of those up for next summer for sure!

Whoooooo, post 1500!!!

Sorry, mine is not in selling condition right now. I botched a hand launch, so she needs some repairs.

Sucks that Jiri isn't making them anymore, it's a rockin' airframe.

Mine is just too hard to launch and land with the extra weight.

Check out the Q40's with the Nelsons and Jetts, there doing 10 laps, 2 1/2 miles just over a minute. Times 1:01-1:05.
