I also had a .40 ARF version a few years later. The .20 kit I built before ARFs took over was easy to build and was an excellent flier. They were as easy to take off and land as any trainers but could also do almost any aerobatics you’d want. Good looking planes as well.

Hi Brian... My 4 channel trainer back in '87 was a Carl Goldberg Eaglet 50. Like many Goldberg kits, it was also easy to assemble... too easy in fact that my former flying colleagues called these kits ARF
.
Btw... Hangar9/horizon hobby brought back the Goldberg tiger, but it's a big airplane... 30cc size. If they make a 10cc size, that would be interesting. Cheers!
