I plan on keeping these; if you want them we can discuss the options. I will include a Terra 760 radio with the plane.
If this is your first plane, I'll even throw in an old headset that I used for years that works, but could use some TLC.
If you are looking for an inexpensive to fly (3.75 GPH) flat out fun plane…. This is it! The Quad City Challenger is the most popular light sport plane on the market, and there is a reason. It is simply a blast to fly and the popularity of the kit has made it so there is a very large support group for the owner.
The plane can take off and land in less than 400 feet and can cruise at 80-85MPH.
I bought this plane as a test to see if I was the kind of guy that wants to own a plane – I am. I flew 110 hours in this plane in 12 months, learned a bunch, met some great friends, and re-sparked my love of flying. But now I want a plane to do acro in and although this plane is flat out fun, it does not fit my new mission. I now want a Citabria and while I could own both, it is not very realistic due to hangar space.

With Doors at sunset at my friends Radio Controlled Airplane field… This plane has GREAT short field performance. With the old 54" prop and short redrive I could fly in and out of the radio controlled airplane field with no worries on grass runways of less than 500 feet in length. Measured performance was 370 for both take off and landing. The larger prop and tall redrive has improved the performance but I have not measured it since installation.
The paint and fabric are in great shape. The Dragon is vinyl and I have taken most of it off, but left the head because I think it adds some humor. The plane has been kept in a hangar the entire time I have owned it.

Less than 15 hours on the new 60" Warp Drive taper tip prop and redrive. It has improved performance 5-10%
Extra 12 Volt plug and standard VFR instruments. The Dual CHT and dual EGT are very nice to have.
