Title: The CR-5 from ChargerRC
Post by: anwar on April 08, 2010, 02:08:02 AM
Other than helis, my affection lies with foam airplanes. Not really into cutting foam sheets (except for repairs) for lack of time being the major reason, non availability of good quality depron is another.  So mostly building ARF kits, whenever I can find them.

Recently a good friend and fellow RC enthusiast started flying at least once a month to the US, so it has become easy to get such items.  The first installment was this CR-5 foamy ARF from http://chargerrc.com/shopexd.asp?id=37

The quality of their depron is the best I have seen so far.  At 6mm thickness, this will be one solid plane, that should be able to handle a decent amount of wind too !

Looking forward to building this as soon as time permits.  Will put either an Electrifly Rimfire or Towerpro brushless combo on it, with HXT900 servos.

Pretty much all hardware including hinge tape is included !
