Here's what you get:
Legend shown above, low-time YS 1.20AC installed on Merle Hyde soft mount with nose-ring, Hatori FAI pipe, Johnson header with MPP aluminum coupler, Airtronics STYLUS radio WITH AERO Upgrade card, PCM, channel 15 (see radio & card features & specs), (Also MY favorite things about Stylus ), Low Profile coreless dual bearing servos on elevators, ailerons, hi-torque BB servo on rudder, std servo on throttle, proportional retract servo, SR 5-cell rec'r pack, Ultra RC switch, Supra retracts, Pro-Mag wheels, Goldberg tailwheel, ball link servo ends to ball bearing horn ends on Tettra aluminum horns for aileron, elevator; rudder is pull-pull. Remote glow plug hookup to save fingers. Tru-Turn spinner with lightened backplate, double jam nut for prop.
ALL of the above was new this spring. Engine has 3 gallons on new (standard) piston, 12 gallons TOTAL since new, runs flawless. Photo above was taken after the last time plane was flown this fall. There is very minor hanger rash on horizontal stab tips and some of the lettering on the nose is getting a little "used" looking. Otherwise this is one almost PERFECT airplane, ready to fly!
If you went out to buy the engine, plane, mount, exhaust system, retracts, radio, battery, switch, card, top line servos, paint and tettra hardware you'd spend at least as much as I'm asking (go ahead, price all them goodies listed above!! Or see table below). If you want a great flying, great looking plane that's READY TO FLY, this one's a good deal. Hundreds of hours of building, finishing, installation, set-up and trimming FOR FREE!
NOTE (added 11/11/96) - Several of you have grumbled about already having engines and or radios and just wanting to know what the plane would cost. So I have ALSO priced it without radio, or without radio and engine.
