It really depends on the weights of the airplanes. It might have the same power to weight. It might be quite a bit more. Of course from what I have read alot of people have to modify their cardens with bigger control surfaces and throw. The way it looks, these thing werent really designed to do 3d, they do acomplish it though. I could be wrong. Mr. Cronkhite probably knows alot more than I do about them. I guess it jsut all comes down to personal preference.
