Default RE: what 35 % is the best for 3D

I'm not arguing that weight is irrelevent. Lower wing loading is better but not near as important as the lightness of the touch on the sticks. I love flying the foamy electrics but they are the devil in a breeze. There is always a trade. As in motors, the weight is added cooling value and longevity. I have had good luck in the past with Keith Bakers motors but the 110 is so light it makes me ponder??? I also generally need nose weight to offset push/pull rudder setups that I prefer.

What ever the weight I always enjoy flying the bird.
