I'm sneaking up on buying one of these also. Can you tell me - will the Decathalon fly slow and gentle (similar to a Cub)? I'm looking for a nice looking, good quality relaxed flyer for low and slow flying (i.e. to enjoy the looks rather than for aerobatics).

Yes, it does a nice job of "low & slow" I would still recommend the Saito 100 as a powerplant, and a 15x6 prop would work great for you... You'll have plenty of power if you need it, but she will putt around the pattern too!
