Hi, I'm a new member, and I'm going to try to post a photo of my Kolibri. It uses SH&R rx, LS 2.4 servos, 1624 motor with Braun prop, flys on (3) CR2 batteries, and weighs 3.8 oz ready to fly.

It flys rather well. I don't have an indoor site, and I got tired of driving somewhere only to have the wind blowing, so one night at dusk, it was dead calm, I took it out in the driveway. This area is only about 25 ft wide and 50 ft long, surrounded by trees, with the tree canopy hanging above about 10 ft up. Well, it was constant work, but I could either fly from one end to the other doing pylon turns at the ends, or just keep it in a tight circle the whole time. The only problem came from mosquito bites. I had to set it down everytime one started to bite, because I couldn't fly level long enough to take my hand off the transmitter.
