You will really like your 4*. I have two of them and love them both. What engine are you going to use? I have one with a GMS76 on it and it flies really good. The other one has a magnum 91 4 stroke on it and it is the best. Both planes fly great the way that I have them set up. I would suggest if you are using a 2 stroke engine to go at least 75 or bigger. I flew mine alot with a TT 61 pro on it and it was ok but this plane comes alive with a 75 on it. You will have unlimited vertical and won't have to worry about stalling on big vertical manuvers. I just makes the plane more fun to fly. Here are some pictures of mine. The red and yellow one has red stripes on the wings now.
