Hey you guys,
Can i get some information regarding the Pik20D.
To previous owners; would you own one again?
Are they nice to fly?
To Rig?
To launch and land?
How do they go at 80 knots?
Do they fly well at max gross wt.?
I have read that they are not real good in the rain but this is not a
concern for me as I don't plan on doing much rain flying!
Thanks in advance
Nick Kennedy

Easy to assemble.
Goes quite well.
Strong and durable.
Doesn't like bugs or rain.
These are quite good ships, usually priced low relative to their
performance.
Good Luck
UH
