Looks like a new plane from Eflite. Does not appear to be out yet.

I'm going to grab one of these for my personal collection as soon as it arrives. Motion RC will get a pre order up next week. The plane is due in at the end of June. I'm excited about this one for a few reasons.

1) Amazing lights - The Flyzone Beaver has the absolute best lights in the business and this plane has the same lights. The strobes look amazing and they are, without a doubt, some of the best lights in the business.
2) flight time - The plane was designed to fit a wide range of batteries from a 3S 2200 which will give you about 8 min of flight time up to a 3S 3300 which will give you about 12 min of flight time.
3) flaps included - enough said
4) floats and tundra tires both included - I fly a lot of float planes but I also like to fly off long grass. This will handle both
5) leading edge slats included - You can turn it from a great flying decently aerobatic plane (for a cub) to an STOL (short takeoff and landing) plane by installing the included leading edge slats. I will try it without the slats first but I'm excited to try the slats later.
6) plenty of power - This plane has the same power system as the E-Flite Ultimate2 3D plane and it only weights a few extra ounces.
7) shock absorbing landing gear (when tires are used)
8) Dual steerable water rudders on the floats - finally a seaplane that can maneuver!


The above are the highlights for me and the reasons I want one. There are other features which are neither here nor there for me. Of course it has AS3X. It also has SAFE select which I'll turn off.
