Very different airplanes actually. I thought about an Olympus on there but I got a deal on a Pegasus I couldn't pass up. Truth is when I owned it last I had a prototype booster with 44lbs thrust and much lighter than an Olympus (450). It was great fun but I was flexing the wings flying it. I have this problem with my left hand. There is a disconnect between my brain and my thumb on that hand that allows it to operate rudder during flight but keeps the throttle pinned all the time. I should probably see a therapist about that lol.
The Pegasus will be just fine. Even with an Olympus it still wouldn't be a fast as my raptor or firebird so I'll keep it a little more fuel efficient this time and try too keep the wing tips from touching.
