RE: should i get a sig somethin' extra?
I had a Something Extra as my second plane and loved it. It is a great flying plane, but like other have said it can be a handful if you have the throws turned up.
Unfortunatly mine no longer exists, it decided it need to meet the ground! But i am looking for another one, would really like to build one from a kit.

Yep-it's Dubro gear. I used the same thing in the rear. I put a 1/4 inch block inside the fuse to support the rear. Works great.

Thanks for coming back with your outcome, so many just leave the threads hanging.
The GP Dazzler as is the Tower Uproar are both very similar airplanes and both will perform something like the SSE and it should serve you well.

Ad me to the list of SSE admirers. I have two one bought used back in 08 and the other was wreck that a club member didn't want to fool with.
It is a great plane with very basic construction making it very easy to repair / rebuild and I can vouch for that as I have rebuilt my first one about 5 times, not the planes fault just my dumb thumb. Currently am rebuilding the one I got from the club member, it's crash was caused by a radio failure [REALLY not me this time].
