Some video of my 1/2A Combat Planes with Profi .049 engines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XmusHK42OQ

Mike, great stuff. I also enjoy the Profi. The Lil Buzzard certainly looks good . I have one I finished just prior to the bad weather and I haven't been able to fly it yet. Ken

Ken FYI on what mine was like on first flights. I shortened the boom 3/4" per Jeff because I am using the Profi. It wasn't enough. It was still a tad tail heavy. 2 pennies in the LE fixed that. Also I think it would benefit from a longer bolt for the horn than the one supplied. It was manageable but it could be better. (I am using 2" handle spacing so I can't go smaller there)

Gotta love the simplicity and durability of those l'il combat planes

I don't own any Profi but I find they fly great with the Fora and if balanced right the light weight NVs... I even have one for training with a strong TeeDee that flys well

Good video thanks Mike
