I agree with Chuck. A profile is where you need to be with a 46-55 sized glow engine. They fly 3d much better than a full fuse because of the weight. The Mojo 40 would be excellent.
If you want to stay with Electric than the Funtana X Mini is a good choice. Why not start off with a foamy, dwfoamies.com? They are a lot of fun and are very durable when you flop one in from hovering low.
i second the mojo .40
any .46 sized engine has enough power to hover and give a decent pullout, ax55 i had a hard time with because right where it wanted to hover was right where the ax55 has a midrange deadspot so it would always die on me, put a gms.47 in it and couldnt be happier
just put whatever engine you have a few galloins through and you would trust your life on.....if you cant trust your life on it dont put it in your 3d plane....just asking for trouble
