The Rico-She sounds very interesting; I agree. The only thing keeping
me from buying it right now, though, are two things:
First, you have to keep the hardware consideration in mind--read the
fine print. If you do not have the right fitting hardware, you may be
talking a total of $200+ to put a foamie in the sky (OUCH!).
Personally, most of my hardware needs upgrading anyway (too many
crunchy collisions with earth and flying objects), but with Christmas
still fresh on my wallet's mind, upgrading will have to be shelved.
Second, before I buy the plane and hardware on impulse, I want to hear
some testimonials!
On another note, I agree with the flat-looking V-tail.
Note to self: Film at eleven...

I'm building one now. I'll let you know how it goes. I'll post some pics
when nearer completion. I was planning on racing it in our upcoming 60"
sportsman Man on Man class this season... we'll see.

The Rico-SHE from Phoenix Model Products looks quite interesting. If any one
decides to try this plane please tell us about it.
BTW, the V-tail looks too flat to my eye. It will be interesting to see if
it
has sufficient yaw damping.

Their other planes seem interesting as well. They've got quite a few.
