This is a really powerful and fun airplane. Easy to fly, yet very powerful with the OS55 AX engine. Perfect as a trainer (just dial back the throttle on your radio).
The bomb bay doors are really fun for doing candy drops or anything you can fit in the cargo bay :)

Does not include a radio, but you can bind your radio to the rx and fly straight away.

Large 2-cell life battery on-board means you can do multiple days of flying without recharging. Recharging is set up really easy, no need to remove battery.

Custom on-board glow igniter makes starting a breeze. No fussing about with glow starters. Just insert custom "key" on the side for a few seconds and start.
"Remove Before Flight" tag makes sure you don't take off with glow plug engaged.

I'll also throw in spare glow plug and other bits and bobs that go with nitro plane (glow starters, darts, etc.)

Looks like a lot of plane for the money, glws!
 
There must be a Hobby Plane group on Facebook that would be a better place to advertise this?
If the right people don't see it you are going to end up selling it for peanuts, you may even have good luck on Gumtree but then you have to endure the inane replies and offers...
 
That's actually a really good idea. Thanks, will give it a shot (y)
