New E-flight Rare Bear BNF and PNF

Post by Derek »

Ok, so I'm sure we've all seen the Rare Bear from HK. It's a quick little sucker. So what's such a big deal about E-flight making one? Check it out...pretty cool!!!

At $229 for the BNF with AS3X....I think that's pretty fair actually. $199 for the PNF. I think the PNF could be a bit cheaper because it wouldn't have the AS3X and if you were to buy the PNF and then, later on, put a AS3X in it, that would be another $100. Probably just smarter to get the BNF with AS3X.

A friend at my club has one of these. It is quick. Whines out pretty good. :) To get the full "holy fastness" feel though, you have to fly it low. Far away and high up doesn't convey the speed too well. :)

It really is a sweet plane. I can image the "WOW factor" as this sucker goes screaming past...fast and low.
