Any suggestions on fiberglass planes that you guys have flown, or overall best bang for your buck type deal thinking of maybe going nitro too but electric is fine as of right now i have no real preference maybe a f4u corsair would be ideal but i wanna know whats out there and what you guys think is the best any feedback will be greatly appreciated thank you :)

In all honesty, the only fiberglass plane that i have seen fly is the Ultra Flash Composite ARF that is run by a turbine engine. As stated above, welcome to the site. Let us know what you decide to purchase.

OK they fooled me . . . as they looked so clean and I thought they were fiberglass. I pm'd Lopez at the "other place", that people did some fiberglass here and told him to check out this site . . . My Bad . . .:buttkick:

Lopez, actually, Breeze400's F7F . . . F7F Tigarcat. . . . has a fiberglass fuselage with covered wings. Quote from website "Most ESM scale RC airplanes have epoxy resin fiberglass fuselages, with the wings being typical built up, and then covered with Solartex fabric, which is then painted for a perfect match!"

He purchased it from Giant Scale RC Model Airplane ARFs, Jets, Warbirds, Servos, Accessories, Goldwing RC, ESM, ECOMRC DLE ENGINES!

Here is their F4U . . . ESM F4U Corsair 74" wingspan radio control model airplane. Optional retracts available separately. (ESMCORSAIR74) - troybuiltmodels.com . . . 74" wingspan . . . big :yikes:
