Title: Sopwith Camel
Post by: Percyflyer on September 29, 2006, 03:03:40 AM
I just received the new Sopwith Camel from Horizon. The bar has been raised once again. This ARF is fantastic. More and more of the assembly is being included in the latest release of ARF's and this one is no exception. Hinging is factory installed and the hinge gaps sealed. All blind nuts installed, every where. The cowl, all hatches, struts, etc. Everything just screws on. The top forward hatch is fiberglass, matches perfectly and attaches with a spring hatch release, again already installed. Too bad they didn't make this in 1/4 scale. Aflight report in a couple of weeks.

Steve,

Please keep us posted on your progress - what you like/dislike during the assembly.
Also, we'd really like to know how it flies when you're done!  :)

Hi Steve,
I just saw your posting. It sounds really great.  What size is this Sopwith?  Who makes it?
