Shown is a shot of my own Rare Bear Reno racer, modified from a production F8F-1 Bearcat kit. This particular model is powered by an AstroFlight brushless 020 motor and 7 X 700AR cells. Covering is white and metallic gold Ultracoat. All up weight is slightly over 20 ounces with the larger battery, and performance borders on hair-raising!
