Graupner Extra 300 60 ARF?
Just wondering if anyone has seen or delt with this ARF. I saw it at www.hobby-lobby.com and it looks pretty nice. Does anyone have any comments on there arf's, looks nice with fiberglass parts, and there price is pretty good to be a 60 size model. Any Comments?

Folks at Hobby Lobby told me the 300 in Wagstaff scheme is due in January. It is supplied by Graupner which has a reputation for quality products.
I bought one of the Graupner Cap232 ARF's during their After Thanksgiving sale and it is a top quality ARF. Hinges already installed and pinned, canopy and pilot installed. Covering, paint and hardware all look good.
The ARF's are made in Vietnam. At $169.00 they are a bargain.

Are the specs @ hobby-lobby right with the cap 232? It says that it is only a 51" wingspan, but it weights almost 6lbs? Their extra is 63", and it weighs less?? Whats the deal!

But, is the wingspan 51"(Cap)? I would just go with the Extra(get more size, less weight), but the rudder looks like a toothpick compared to the cap's. What engine are you using? Would a 91-4s fit?
