Default Aviation Design "SCORPION"

Have been looking at the SCORPION ARF as my 2nd jet. It's not yet available in the U.S., but the U.S. distributor says it's on the water and should be available for shipment in about 3 weeks. I assume the kits are already available and flying in Europe. Can anyone provide any info. on this plane: kit quality, flying characteristics, value for the money, etc.???

If it's as good as it looks, I'd like to get my order in before they're all gone.

It can be seen here: http://www.adjets.com/

Only the prototype sample model has been flown in europe by Eric Rantet, the Owner and designer of Aviation Design, he has twenty four flights on the plane , firstly with a 14lb turbine , the plane flew well because it was light with a light fuel load, but needed a long take off run and verticles were not out of sight, so Eric fitted a twenty pound thrust turbine and the plane lept off the ground and the verticles wre fabulous, and it seemed to MAKE NO DIFFERENCE TO THE SLOW LANDING SPEED , so the recommendation in the instructions will be for a twenty pound turbine for performance....I think this model is going to be very popular , and Eric is working on the larger version of the same plane 22% bigger for the thirty pound turbine brigade....... this will come in Jan /feb next year......Malcolm Kay ,US distributor, AVIATION DESIGN.
