    great video.
    an injected, constant speed 1FT is about as close to a peak airplane that exists. the RGs are faster, but more complex, and unable to go into lesser-improved strips (without putting your spine through the ringer). the III is much faster, but barely gets 2/3 the fuel mileage and is significantly less forgiving in the box.
    make sure to check the landing gear attach point brackets (the part that connects to the side of the fuselage). there was an AD on those as well if im not mistaken that called for a thicker bracket in their place. if it shears, theres still an attachment point for the gear towards the center but its obviously a suboptimal situation, with the gear leg resting directly on the fuselage sidewall

      I checked this out on the annual. All is good thanks for the comment. I am very happy with the performance.

    Looking at these myself. How much ball park did you score it for?

      Depends on the setup 70-100k

      @@tdurbinl inflation has ruined this hobby. You could get these for 40-45k as recently as 2019. Hopefully things loosen up.
