I'm having a blast with my Mini 3D. This is the easiest plane to hover and harrier I've tried. You can't make this plane drop a wing.

I found:

25LA is GREAT

Wheels are too small and stress the gear, try 2.5" dubro ultra light wheels

HS-81's too wimpy for huge throws, rudder blew back during KE and one stripped on the aileron. Went to 225MG on elevator and rudder, much better. 85MG on ailerons would be a good choice. All up weight is still only 2lbs 5oz.

Lots of little mods you figure out as you go along, but well worth the effort Glad I bought two.
