Brad Walker and I spent about 2 hours talking to Pete Bergstrom of
Horizon at the Toledo show this year, and they do have some good
stuff coming out for CL use. The Evo 36 motor looks like a winner,
and a steal at $80.00.
Pete told us he has personally been working on a PT-19 RTF plane
for CL stunt/sport. This is basically a .40 sized version of the old Cox
PT-19, but built of wood and ready to fly with motor installed. Pete said he's
been having a blast flying it in development.
He also said they have begun work on a .60 sized competition stunt
ship, but didn't give any details. You can darn well bet that if it's a
Hangar 9 product it will be top notch. I've flown Hangar 9 RC ARFs and
they are fantastic. The build quality is always first rate.
