Its well over priced which is a shame.

[HobbykingLive]

@fisherboom that is the manufactures list price. Please add to shopping cart for actual reduced price.

So, what is the practical use for the adjustable trim tabs? Just for roll-control?

[HobbykingLive]

@catamaranman333 they can be used to trim out roll and also to get rid of porpoising which I should have mentioned after running the boat. I usually prefer the other two methods mentioned in the video to get rid of the porpoising as I feel it causes less drag. It's just my personal preference which doesn't mean its right or wrong.

will we see the HobbyKing Icon-A5 EPO Seaplane - 1090mm (PNF) @ 6:00 soon?

Looks like a fun to fly seaplane ^^

[HobbykingLive]

@slashyful Paul will be doing a review of the Icon-A5 plane you saw in the video pretty soon.

[nerdyrcdriver]

I think that is the most expensive thing I have ever seen on hobbyking

[catamaranman333]

@HobbykingLive Yeah, adjusting the stinger rather than the trim tabs seems like a lower-drag solution to me too, hence the question. I really know nothing about RC boats although I have alot of professional experience with the scale ones. Just wondered how it all "translated" to RC...thanks Frank!
