          Appears to be similar to the Spartan..... Looks cool though.....like the self righting feature in that size hull...... Guess it goes on my Christmas list to the wife........

                      My understanding is Great planes took over Tower Hobbies.

                        I thought that was years ago? Like late 1990's or early 2000's and now with Tower/great planes going under I thought I heard Horizon was going to try and buy them out of bankruptcy?

                          It's sad I have ordered from both Tower and Horizon since the mid to late 1980's. Also sad that Novak had to close up shop. Very hard for US company's to compete with everything that comes out of China today with the internet. I'm also one to blame as I also order stuff on Ebay from China. I did not know it was such a big deal until Novak closed their doors. I feel bad now for trying to save a few bucks.

                            LOL!! I'm going to wait for the reviews but the Recoil 26 is SO MUCH FUN!! I purchased it to run when I'm out on the lake on my boat and run it in 1-2ft waves and it is a blast!! If this new sonic gets good reviews I will sell the Recoil and the Sonic will be my new toy to keep on my boat!

                              That's exactly why I preordered this one. I go on the lake every week a few times on my boat and run RC while I'm out there. It's such a blast and everyone always looks like what the heck is that out there lol. I had the barbed wire XL but sold it here a few days ago..only ran that a few times ....a little slow for my likings. I still want a recoil 26 to bash on. But I'm excited as heck to have a 6 cell ripper that can self righ and abs hull to take the jumps. Woooo it's gunna be fun!!!
