I've been looking at new companions for the Phoenix 2000, craft that compliment the old girl without threatening the role of stately flyer.
I've narrowed down the candidates (for now) to the anomalously-named Radjet 800 pusher-prop and a small fun-fighter, the Rarebear. The latter seems an excellent proposition, capable of 120mph top speed with a 850mAh 4S 45C power pack for a very modest outlay. I must admit though that it is a little daunting, with the capability to fling itself into the ground or disappear from sight in a millisecond.
The reviews of it, however, are enthusiastic and recommend it roundly. Comments that it flies on rail are most encouraging.
The Radjet is another interesting proposition. Initially I was interested in getting it as a kit to transpose components from the crippled Floater Jet. However, having now located pushrods to replace the cracked and bent originals, I'm going to get the ready-to-roll version and hopefully get the Floater Jet into the air decked out in enough LED's to light up the neighbourhood.
The tailless Radjet looks like a sprightly performer with a ridiculously-high roll rate and all-round enthusiastic performance.
Looking forward to getting both...
