RE: New 3D plane
I'm getting another DiablotinXL, putting a DA50-R in the nose, and with 5xHS5945MG it's not the cheapest, but it's an awesome combo. For cheaps, the Aeroworks 80" Profile Extra with either an mvvs2.15gas, zdz40rv-l, Taurus or BME44-50 and five HS645BB servos. We are still talking around $1k, but moving up costs.
