Looking for a Beaver
Hello all,
I'm currently on the lookout for a Beaver model, preferably within a 4 to 5 foot wingspan. I like the GWS version but I don't care much for the undercambered wing design.
Does anyone know of any good sites that offer the Beaver with a flat-bottom style airfoil??
(IE: Like the J-3 Cub has)
Thanks in advance...

Aren't we all? LOL
The GWS Beaver is a good flying 3 channel park model for sure.
Now for a bigger one the E-Flite model is a Beauty!

Thanks for the replies guys.. and yes, things are FINALLY starting to turn around for the better. 
It's tough to keep food on the table and a roof over your head for the family nowadays, with the economy in such bad shape.
But.. I finally found some steady, reliable work, and you'll be seeing alot more of me around here.
Thanks again for the welcome back!
I really like that Beaver on horizonhobby.. she's a beauty!!

Anyone else hear something like that?
