I've been looking at this one every time I go to Hobby lobby, finally picked a few up and started cutting. This version has 2 direct drive GWS motors running on a 7 cell 280mAh NiMh pack. GWS Rx and Jamara Bit servos. MGM ComPro SMM-06 ESC. It is rudder/elevator/throttle and should get a test flight tonight in the well-lit Wal-Mart parking lot.
See the
Photo Gallery (http://home.earthlink.net/~tbaddley/Photos/757/index.htm) here.

Hey Jason,
Don't you think this should be in the Parkflyers section? I'm absolutely certain it won't fly indoors! Shame on you. I can't believe I have to tell the moderator how to post stuff... !&%$#@?!

-----------------OFFICIAL MODERATOR RESPONSE-------------------
As moderator of this board, I'm going to have a little FAITH in people and leave it here because it says in the subject (INDOOR 757 for $6). If the guy who posted it says its for indoor, then it MUST be for indoor. Besides, no one would ever lead you astray on an internet bulletin board.....would they? :) Nuf Said?

Way to go Gary...I saw video of it flying indoors too! Dave needs to put that online!!!
I love the steerable nose gear, nice touch (for an old fart). I hope I don't have to kick myself off here for saying that. ;)

NMT_Racer_Boy,
Go to Tower Hobbies' site and do a search for "American Airlines glider". They are approximately eight and a half bucks (American) at Tower. I paid $6.99 plus tax at Hobby Lobby, the craft store.
