3D or pretty?

Forget what it looks like, most of the stuff that looks like a real plane falls short in the 3D trainer department (Ucan, Funtana.....). Get a Sledge, it does it all and does it well. Keep the throws...

6xas

The 6XAS is what I use for my 3D stuff. It handles dual rates and expo on AER and I put in flaperons and spoilerons and that's the limit of the radio, it's out of mixes. If you want anything else...

.25 sized 3D's?

Fun 15, mine's a kick with a 20FP. Taco 25 might be a good choice too (I don't own one so I'm not sure). The Fun 15's available as an ARF from Singapore hobbies I think. Both planes are posted in...

Sig Ultimate Fun Fly 3D?

Appreciate all the input.

TailTwister;
Did you try harriers/elevators with spoilerons?
Are the control surfaces large enough for the slow stuff?
Ever get one to blender?

Thanks

Sig Ultimate Fun Fly 3D?

Been wanting to try some 3D with a Bipe, thought the Sig Ultimate profile might be a good candidate. Has anybody tried any 3D with one? Appreciate any input.

Thanks

Irvine 53 slow to come back to idle?

Once it comes down it'll stay there all day and the transition is crisp and clean. Just takes forever to come down in the air.

Irvine 53 slow to come back to idle?

Got an Irvine 53 in an SU29 with an APC 12.25x3.75. When I pull throttle to idle it seems to take forever for the engine rpm's to come down. Is this due to the airframe being fairly clean or am I...

Live Wire 3D

Don't have one but I did design my own 3D electric about 6 months before the Live Wire came out. When I saw it my first comment was "Close but no cigar", it's going to be short on power.

Somethin Extra....

Biggest problem with the SE and knife edge is its profile. Mine's got an inch added to the rudder, 3/4's added to the elevator and the elevator's modified to allow 45+ degrees throw on the rudder,...
