The electronic harness is a good idea but trying to hook up the receiver to the board for me was impossible. I ended up using my own harness for retracts and ailerons plus the rudder. The directions have never been good as far as I can remember. I bought a 1400mm red tail P-51 4 years ago and had the same problems.

The A4 is a complete dream to fly for a scale warbird. Easy take offs and easy no fuss landings. Very stable. Dial back the aileron throws for sure. The roll rate it very aggressive at high rates. Use a gyro and it slows things down and smooths everything out. On my maiden I had a weird spontaneous aileron roll at full lock. Saved the craft, but went back through everything again and subsequent flights were flawless.

Very easy to put together, flies great. A little slower than my Freewing MiG 21.

Just got it. Wow this is a great plane. Having worked on A-4 skyhawks I know every inch of the real airframes. They did an awesome job of recreating this historic aircraft. Going to buy a second one soon.(don't tell my wife)

Plane went together with no problems, I did have to use some servo to RX extensions to put RX behind battery. Removed battery tray to run wires under it and placed the rx on the end of the tray, Using Callie graphics for a different livery scheme. Winter has set in, so no flying yet.
