The first EDF I got was the Stinger 64. Belly lands nicely and can give good practice for flaring with EDFs from my experience. I'm using it to practice before I maiden my F-16. I transitioned straight from an E-Flite Apprentice to the Stinger 64 with no problem. Others have said it's not floaty enough to have as a first EDF but my experience with it has been great. Durable construction and easy to assemble. Just my thoughts, but I'm not the most knowledgeable person on the subject.

Sure do wish the Arctic camo version was available. Slick. I now have just about everything in place: strut mod package, weapons, Lemon Pro stab combo, wireless lights, 2200kv 14blade with 125 amp esc from edfhobbies. Now all I need to do is order the Arf+ and I'll be in high cotton.

I love the blue camo look...... I went with the newer splinter type, but I like the colors on the original betterComment

That looks sweet dusmmdb...
Took mine out but the landing suffered terribly from distraction thanks to some folks that rolled up the runway and starting talking to me while I was trying to land. :Angry:

Thanks! Oh yes, the only thing that flies even more like it's on rails is the Avanti S. But both are outstanding models. So crisp, clean and smooth to fly. I would swear both have built-in gyros. :)My YouTube RC videos:

Like a squirrel, I've been gathering all the components needed for this plane. So today I finally ordered the Arf+ . Could not hold out for an Artic Camo livery. I'd be waiting for the cows to come home. In normal MRC fashion, the plane will probably arrive in a couple of days . If all goes according to Hoyle, I'll maiden this weekend along with my new twin 80mmn A-10. Looking forward to having a speed wagon like the F5Currently flying: Twin 80mm A-10, 80mm F5, 80mm A6, 70mm Yak-130, 70mm F-16v2,90mm Stinger 90, 70mmRC Lander F9F, Flightline F7F TigerCat, Phoenix 46 size Tucano, Flyzone L-39

I used flat white, flat black and flat grey. Any hardware selling enamel rattle can brand will work. When I was all done I hit it with mini wax poly satin.My YouTube RC videos:
