For 3D the Hype 3D hands down.

It is a fantastic 3D plane. Light and very tricky. Power it with a West 50 with the pipe or a YS 63 or a Satio 82 would be insane.

The Balsanova is good if you want a faster flying airplane, it is not a 3D plane.

If you want to split the difference between the two, the new Filton Inspire 60 looks to be the badest purpose built 3D plane in a long while.

If you could get a Madness 2, I would buy that over the Hype.

Are we talking about the same plane?

You can find BOSSANOVA (NOT BALSANOVA) here: http://www.alshobbiesstore.com/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Ripmax_83.html

I haven't flown the Hype and only have about 2 minutes on a Bossanova. I know people that love the Bossanova but the one I flew wasn't set up for my style so can't really comment. I know a guy that has flown both and he thinks that the Hype is significantly better.

Based on his thoughts I have just ordered myself a Mini Hype. As far as Weston UK ARTF's go I have had a Groove and it was a great model.

I hate pull-pull systems. Could I put two servos in the tail of Hype?

Thank you

The elevator pull pull works very well. Just use a bigger control horn.

Mount the rudder servo in the tail, it would work much better that way for balance.

They fly almost the same. The Hype is a bigger plane and flys a bit bigger. The Flip rolls faster. I stoped flying the Flip after I got the Hype.

Can you get a Madness 2? Do that.

Not I.

Search Madness here in RCU, I am sure you can find who carries them.

For all I know, they may not be in production any more. Plane is made by ZN Line.

Thank you

But there is a problem about Madness 2. The color scheme is not very good for 3D. You can't see fastly if the plane is upright or inverted.

This is my bossanova with a TT 46 engine, more than enough for hovering and torque roll
