I have one of These Coming Soon, Balsa Version, it has been around for a while and was selling very cheap in states but shipping was always the down fall.
But i have found a place that was reasonable, I have always wanted a Trojan Slightly bigger than the Parkzone and the large 80 inch Trojan is out of my price range at the moment so the 1400 is the compromise.

Looks good mate (... all Trojans do, in my humble opinion), but - no retracts?

... and the FMS machine goes pretty well in the stock configuration, as we know from Dave and Gazz - however, Mandom showed us his FMS Trojan upgrade at the Blacktown Electric Fly-in Day in February and it consisted of nothing other than going to 5S! He made no changes other than that, and it did of course add some zip in the low passes.

hey that looks nice !!

Looks nice mate.

Saw one of these buzz by whilst in Toowoomba on the weekend, yes the real deal! Wow what a sound, and dead-set looks just like our RC models.

Looks great Steve, how unusual for you to up the ante on the motor. But I wanna see the 90mm EDF conversion that you are renowned for.

You Know my Pain, when i was thinking how fast i can get this Trojan to Fly.
But common sense prevailed, Trojans i rekon need power to go vertical but not ballistic as they are a nice scale flying machine
