Default 3D Kit for dle 30

Hi,

I wanted a kit to kit myself busy during the monsoon when it is raining all weekends. I was looking for a kit that can do 3D and restricted to 20cc. I have two questions

1) Can someone suggest a kit?

2) Is the GP Extra 300 60 jit suitable? I was told its not 3D, if so what changes will make it 3D?

The kit needs to be fairly simple to build because I am just an ok builder, I dont have too much building experience. It needs to have removable wings. I am also not too much of a fan of profiles but If nothing else is available, I will get a MOJO 60. Theat will be my last option

Large control surface delflections, eg: 45 deg on elevator

Power to weight ratio of 2:1, min.

Use a low pitch prop to keep the speed down.

Fairly fast servos all around.

Deflections come without saying. But do I need to over size the surface?

DLE20

17X6 prop

475hb & 5625mg as required

Thats the thought process

Have you thought about a profile? Go to www.swanyshouse.com Their 60" Mojo or 65" Primo would both match up well with your DLE 20 and perform better than any other full fused kit on the market.
The problem is, and the reason you are not getting many responses is, ARFs have taken over in the RC world. Especially in 3D stuff.

Swany's discontinued the 65 for now. The 60 isn't quite big enough.
This is the one I'm leaning towards this winter if I get time.

That and the cost of a profile. Completing the Mojo costs me more that getting a 20cc GW ARF locally
