I am selling my NIB Psyko LT from NSP:
Wingspan: 124", Wing area: 987 sq. in., Weight: 67 oz., Wingloading: 9 oz./sq. ft., Airfoil: SA7035, Skill level: ADV/ADV, Radio: 6-8 channel receiver, 6 micro servos, 600-1200mah battery pack
Asking $500, shipping included. I just bought a Graphite Electric and need to reduce inventory...

"The Psyko Molded is a fantastic ship but the Molded Psyko takes soaring performance to another level! Launching is a matter of standing on the pedal and zooms are the highest! The epoxy glass and Kevlar fuselage of the Psyko Molded is a wonderfully crafted, streamlined beauty that sports a nosecone for ease of entry and strength. This new fuselage is prepainted and comes drilled and fitted for the wing. All the composite work is done at one location to ensure a good fit. Like the Laser 3MC, the Psyko Molded has a long tail moment and a generous fin for directional stability.All flying surfaces are composite. The wings are handcrafted hollow molded beauties. Only in the US can a molded wing be made so light and so strong. We have attained virtually F3B strength in a pair of wings that span 124" and only weigh 16.2 ounces per side! This is very light and the wing is very strong. The Psyko Molded wings are made from a very accurate plug and molded designed and executed by Daryl Perkins. The wings are finished white on top with either red or bright blue on the bottom to maximize visibility. The ailerons use live hinges with wipers installed for gap free operation. The flaps are hinged on the bottom in order to attain 90 degree operation and use a solid shaped wiper on top to provide gap free operation up to 30 degrees. When the flap is operated past 30 degrees the top gap naturally opens and provides a larger amount of surface area and drag for landing ease.The composite stabs are built and finished to match the wings are very strong and suprisingly light. We have endeavored to produce the lightest and strongest molded TD/F3J ship available anywhere and it shows in the outstanding performance! Like the Psyko Molded and all our top-of-the-line composite sailplanes, we followed our inclination to use nothing but the best components, and our hardware is top shelf. We include a special square molded carbon fiber wingrod, high strength fiberglass control horns and Litesteel rods for smooth, slop-free response. All hardware and instructions are supplied for the modeler, as is standard for all NSP kits. The Psyko Molded also comes with a full-sized set of Cad plans to make the task of setup and assembly clear and easy for the modeler.Great penetration and a surprisingly efficient glide are provided by the SA7035 airfoil. We have found the Psyko Molded launches very high and has the ability to range farther than any sailplane in its class. The speed range is very wide with an upper end glide almost as good as an F3B ship. The ability to hang in the air is just what you should expect from this advanced planform. We have been able to get an increase in glide and speed range of nearly 10 percent, and that's something you can see; but what's more amazing is the turn efficiency of the Psyko Molded. All sailplanes see an increased sinkrate in turns; the Psyko minimizes this loss and maintains the ability not only to float but also to retain its good straight-line abilities and stay efficient throughout the turn. With the Psyko Molded it is possible to make exploratory turns in fragmentary lift without concern for excessive altitude loss. What does this mean? As an expert pilot, you can feel confident to take the Psyko Molded to the limit of your piloting capabilities. The Psyko Molded will not let you down. The Psyko has legs! The computer designed quad planform gets the maximum from the 124" wingspan. The Psyko Molded pulls hard on the winch and climbs almost vertically when it's set up properly. The extended zoom at the top can be easily rounded off into a quick lively cruise, perfect for quickly reaching those thermals on the boundaries of visibility. It helps that the designer is the World Champ and 1997 Nats winner. Being a top competitor meant that a ship that Perkins designs would perform the best in every aspect. This is a very well balanced ship. Handling is immediate, tracking is steady and the overall feel is one of synergy, which goes together with form. The Psyko is one beautiful sailplane! The stabs use the SD9026 airfoil designed by Dr. Selig. This airfoil minimizes the deadband around zero angle of attack, which is common to symmetrical airfoils, and results in greater controllability at all airspeeds. Like all our composite sailplanes, the stabs have high aspect ratio along with generous area, again to enhance controllability.Flight performance is just as you would expect from such an advanced design. You get a flat reaching glide; slow speed handling equal to the SD7037 floaters. The Psyko Molded, while having a nice slow speed with minimum sinkrate, will
