Popped into the local hobby store this afternoon to see what was new, and
actually saw something new.  The owner had just finished building a Model
Tech Mach Racer .40 ARF:

It's quite inexpensive, but the covering on it looked terrific.  The entire
bottom of the plane is covered with black-and-white checkerboard while the
top is purple and gold with white.

I'm not sure if he was kidding or not, but he said some of the guys in the
local club were going to race them.  I imagine pylon racing with a bunch of
identically covered ARFs would be a bit of a challenge.

Still, this seems like a great ARF to use for racing or combat events at a
club fun fly event.  It also looks like it'd just be fun to tear around the
sky with one of these.  Just curious if anyone has had a chance to see one
fly or gotten a good look at one?

I have a NIB one sitting in the garage. Haven't opened the box as yet.

I have been a flying wing fanatic since the early sixties when I used to fly
combat using a Goldberg Voodoo. I've lost count of how many of those I have
built and flown (control line).

This one should be fun.

On the same page as where she is shown, they have some "hi-torque" low
priced servos.  Any good ?
