I have gotten pretty good at bulding thoes stick and tissue models, and I think its time to move up to the next level. I can Succesfully fly and land the Zagi and I am wondering what is the best Slowflying kit. I would like it to be more a balsa build up one. I also have a 3 channel radio with a reciver, I will probably need to buy ligheter servos, so I would need the rest of the electronics to be relativly cheap. If you also know of free plans let me know. Your suggestions are welcome. Thanks

If you can handle a Zagi, you can handle a Switchback but also consider my newest kit - the Cessna 180. It's not on my website yet as I'm waiting for wheels for the kits. The 180 won't fly like a Switchback but it's slower and flies scale. The kit will sell for $45. It uses a GWS IPS A motor and 9x7 prop. Three channel - rudder, elevator, and throttle.

Mike,
The Cessna doesn't include a motor. You can use the same motor from a LiteStik. I also stock them.

is their any way you can show pics???I dont care about the wheels being on it I just wanna see what it looks like..What is the material used?I have a couple extra IPS-A Drives hanging around so I should be set on that.If you dont want to show the public the unfinished plane you can always email me the pic if you want..
Im pretty interested in this kit as there are not many if any at all of the cessna's...

As you wish. The plane is a balsa build up but because of the laser cutting, it goes together very fast.
