Big but with plug on wings the katana is readily transportable.
According to Paul Skinner this model performs some of the most axial rolls he has seen.

The Katana has all built up construction. The wings and tail plug onto aluminium joiner tubes; this makes transportation convenient.
Flight characteristics are exemplary. The model is very highly rated for its precision. Paul Skinner who demonstrates regularly at shows and flies for Flair reckons that he has never had a model do a more axial roll. He is not the only pilot to comment on this.
Put in a decent sized engine and see if you can find the limitations of this model.
