Peter Costello Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I am thinking about a foamy A-10 perhaps from Starmax, HobbyLobby or BananaHobby but all do not recommend retracts on grass. I use a grass patch which is pretty good but no billiard table. Options are to go hand launch or dolly. Anybody got any experiences with any of these makes of A-10?? Thanks to Mr Ashby I already know about the Top Gun A-10. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David perry 1 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Weve had the GWS A10 flying well. Ive had a Starmax panther which is the dogs danglies and goes well. Retracts off grass? Never tried at this scale and cant see why I would. hand launching seems to have worked well for half a century and I dont think much has changed. The foamie A10s fly and look good.and they hand launch well. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Richards Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I have a GWS A10 that flys well. It has been well crashed but alway goes back together and flys again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Smalley Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 GWS A10 cheap as chips and flies very well !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Costello Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Thanks for your comments guys - I hadn't realised that the GWS was only a couple of inches less wingspan - defo worth thinking about. At least £100 extra for a couple of inches for the others I was considering!! but I do like the paint jobs that the Starmax especially have got, something I can't replicate.
