He Guys, This thing is a hoot! I did end up doing away with the mag.28 ( not enough Wheaties for me) & going with an OS 40 LA that I had laying around & what a difference. Unlimited vertical, awesome speed w/ some ultra violent snap rolls. One thing it does not like is a lot of wind! My second flight I took off w/ almost no wind then it picked up to probably 15 mph. In these conditions with this small of a plane, believe me, the tail will almost pass the nose! Got it on the ground safely & alls well. Badge if your interested in one of these I say its great. A couple of things you might want to consider though is if you like speed you might want to go a little bigger than the 32. The 40 I put on didn't change the CG much at all but I did have to use bigger tires to get the10/6 prop to clear the grass. During some of those great snap rolls the rear servo tray that holds the elevator & rudder servos came loose, You might want to add a little extra glue there. Other than that, no complaint's.
P.S. Anybody want a new Magnum .28 with about 3 tanks ran through it?
