Looks great, flies great, even takes off and lands great! I am loving this line of planes, and you can easily see why in the video- smooth response, VERY realistic looking in the sky, powerful and fast, inexpensive to buy and to fly, and the list goes on. If you like a GREAT flying plane, you need one of these. If you're a Tempest lover, now's your time to shine in the sky- everyone at the field is sure to be impressed, maybe even as impressed as I am. So- pick up a Tempest and go hunting- you're now a Jabo!
Of course, you'll want the Crashproofing! This plane's nose is especially succeptible to damage, even from simple nose-overs during landing. Our SUPERMAX Crashproofing kit adds a whopping 600% compression strength to the nose, as well as over 250% more strength throughout the rest of the airframe. Also, you get free templates for a plastic lining in the nose scoop with the SUPERMAX kit- an actual MUST on this plane, if you ask me. All you need is a half gallon HDPE milk bottle and some hot glue, and you're set!
If you check out some of our recent Crashproofing test videos, you'll see that the designs have been upgraded to handle even more stress and still keep your plane in one piece- literally! Here's a Durafly/FMS Corsair in this vid, and it lives through a death dive needing only a prop! You have to see it to believe it!
