Help!-Foamy Needed for 10-15 mph Winds
My sub-20 ounce foam planes are just too squirelly for me to fly in the perpetual gusty breezes in the areas I fly.
I'd appreciate any recommendations for a foamie in the 3 to 5 lb range that has good aerobatic capability, not necessarily 3D, but that would be OK if it can handle the winds.
Thanks.

Get a wing for the wind! They genrally fly better in the wind....just fly diagonally with the wind and watch how fast she climbs!
I just got a Mini Bee from windrinder. I put a mini ac brushless with a direct drive 5x3 and using a brand new 2100 3s1p am able to fly on any windy day. it will do 100+ in a dive. The best part of windy days is riding the wind. get a wing...weight or size of wing does not matter too much...they all perform better than conventional planes in the wind.
