FunnyFlyer Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Read a good review of this model in another mag yesterday. Looks very impressive and very good value at a street price of £170. My questions are: As a lone flyer - can it be solo launched? I have a fairly gentle local slope - is it good in light-ish lift? Any comments on durability, ownership etc. Cheers!

simon barr Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Can't comment on the K8, but I had the Pilatus B4... I wasn't very impressed Firstly, It wasn't very aerobatic, and then, during a pretty much perfect landing, the nose section broke clean off. The side sheeting didn't bridge the nose/main fuse join so there was no strength there! So I'm guessing that the K8 will be similar....
