Default Accel Hobby Katana GS on EBARF

I saw the following on EBARF. the seller just signed up on that site with rating of "0".

there seems to be new wave of Chinese imports of poor to no Quality at all.
************************************************** **************

This is a new white color Katana GS 70 ARF from Accel Hobby. We are liquidating a number of these planes on behalf of Accel Hobby. This plane's was not glued strong enough at the factory and your own reinforcement when you get the plane is recommended. Possible techniques include adding CA around the wing mount and adding additional bolts to the fuselage around the wing mount. For flying 3D the reinforcements are definitely required.
This plane can 3D with a wide range of inexpensive 2 stroke and 4 stroke motors. However we do NOT recommend recommend using a motor larger than .82 on this plane.

I purchased the GS40 size . Paid 40.00 for it. The ARF was so nice I purchased a second one off of ebay for 37.00. They fly and look fantastic. Do a search on it and you will see my post with pictures.

Crazy4Flight,
BEWARE, the Kat 70's are the poorest quality ARF's I have ever seen, total junk! Crappy wood, hardware and construction! Buyer Beware!
