    Chris,

    I'm also wondering about the power set up. Did you get the ARF (without the electrics) or did you get the complete package? 4S or 6S power set up?

I have a Seagull Neuport 28, it's beautiful and it flies great, but its heavily wing loaded, so it has to be flown fast and landed fast. It's a shame because it just doesn't fly scale.

      This brings me back to the question I was asking, All up Weight. What I mean is the total weight of the plane, ready to fly (including battery). Have you weighed your plane, battery weight isn't important, as it's easy to add.
      Ah ok It's at 6 lbs total flying weight. that includes 8oz in the nose. It's very light for it's size

          Just completed my DW 1600mm SE-5a. It looks great. However, while range checking it in my yard the motor separated from the mounting box.
          I am using a 4s setup with a 16x6 propellor. Balanced prop and everything was going great, until it didn't.
          Anyone have any experience with this on this model?

            I have. You have to go over , and re glue, all the glue joints. I had half of my elevator come off in flight. I had to make a new one. Looking forward to flying it agtain.

              You have to "Will" the plane togetherit seems. Yeah these Chinese Kits are "Lack Luster" with the instructions, or lack therof.
