Title: T-Rex vs Gieseke Nobler
Post by: Dick Pacini on October 06, 2009, 12:10:42 PM

What is the consensus of opinion between the T-Rex and the Gieseke Nobler by Ultra Hobby Products?  They both seem to be of very good quality and are almost identical in price.

Geiske Nobler is smaller and classic legal for a 40. T-Rex is modern 60 size stunter. Can't go wrong with either depending on what you are after.

I was at the field last week and one of our club members had the first G. Nobler (Ultra Hobby Products) that I have seen. He was flying and trimming. I have never seen a T-Rex fly yet so I can't speak to that, but this little G. Nobler performs like a pro. Stable, Good corner, Good glide, beautiful landings and it had an excellent quick/tight corner. This one was powered by an AeroTiger 36 and it pulled it around just fine. Mostly running in a 4 stroke mode on the level and leaning out in the vertical maneuvers. It was covered with all monocoat. The plane impressed me. A good pilot on the handle and it will be really hard to beat.

The G Nobler is the best classic era plane there is...

This weekend I saw the Gieseki Nobler again only now it has been all trimmed and is flying well. My original assessment in the post below still stands. It's a keeper.

I do not think the G Nobler is in stock.
