Default U Can Do 3D .46 Main Wing Question

I read through the entire thread and see your point. However, I feel that all planes ... ARFs or Kits ... will have a percentage of failure. It seems to me that most folks are overpowering the 46 UCD which only increases the chances of issues from over doing the wing loading.

I will be flying mine with an OS 50SX, mini tune pipe, and an APC 12.25x3.75 prop.

Hopefully it will perform well with that combo. If not, then believe me, Great Planes WILL hear about it.

The air show team is out representing AMA all the time and I don't think GP would want the negative spin.
