Default ARF Nitroplane

I just purchased an ARF Nitroplane P40 Warhawk. Looks like a nice kit with a 31.5" wingspan and is 4 ch. with servos, motor and ESC installed . . . $64.95

I was going to purchase an extra Walkera receiver and use the Transmitter from my Walkera CB180q Heli, however, a Walkera receiver would cost . . . $49.00 . . .

So I also purchased an Exceed 6ch. 2.4 gig Tx / Rx combo for . . . $44.95

I can use the 2 cell Lipos I purchased for the Heli.

I'll post some pics when I get it and maybe do some video on YouTube.

Right Now I have to get practicing on my simulator . . . I use "Clear View" . . . $39.95.

Here's a link to it . . . On the page's video tab, Tony (who does a lot of reviews for Nitroplanes and Xheli) goes through a build and flight test.
