G'day

I have all the Four Stars from 40 to 120 and they fly well but I also have a couple of Spacewalkers. I have the 40 size and also a 120 size and I think the 40 size is a nicer plane to fly than the Four Star 40.

My Space Walker 40 is either a Black Horse or a Seagull (I think it is a Black Horse) and I originally put a Saito 72 in it but it never was happy in it so eventually I put a Saito 62. Perfect. A good 46 two stroke would also be fine.

They are gentle fliers but will also do all the usual aerobatics too. And mine was quite cheap into the bargain.

My suggestion. But I am sure there are plenty of others too like the Tiger.

I also have several Kadets Senior. My oldest one has a Saito 56 and like the Seniorita has no ailerons (if you built it from the kit). It can roll - the trick is to get lots of airspeed with small dive, then lots of up and once she is nose up some rudder to get her to roll then once she starts to turn over a big fist full of down to keep her inverted briefly then more rudder and some up to complete a rather untidy roll. Inverted if fun too. All that dihedral fights you but it will stay there if you keep a fair bit of down and keep the wings level. You do have to have plenty of height as the only way out of inverted is the other half of the loop that you used to get it there in the first place.
