Hi Robert,
ESCOMPOSITES is run by Ed Skorepa. Ed is one of our local flyers. I've bought just
about one of every Rival product that Ed imports from the Czech Republic, including
the Just (now called the Just Right), Fred (Sunrise/Sunset competition electric),
Trend (parkflyer/slow flyer), Pater (fun flyer SP400), and the G-Oldy (antique,
parasol wing, Antic looking SP280 park flyer).
Of all of these planes, in my opinion, the Just or Just Right is the best of the
group. I prefer the cruciform tail over the v-tail. It flies great, thermals quite
nicely, is well-built and can be assembled in 1-2 hours. Since the wing panels plug
together, the plane breaks down very small which allows me to stash a Just in my HLG
box with 3-4 other DLGs.
The pricing includes the plane, motor, prop, and speed controller. The included
Speed400, is a 7.2 volt, so you can run it on 8 cells for a bit more zip although it
runs just fine on 7 cells. The Just would be perfect for a "one design" LMR or 609
battery slot competition.
