Default RE: Tiger Moth ARF which one??

I have the Pacific aeromodels in a box. I had a Dymond .90 Tiger moth. The Dymond has ( non scale) dual aelerons and is pretty aerobatic. I used an enya 120 pumped and the plane putted around at 1/4 throttle and had very respectable verticle capibilityWOT. It would fly fine with a .90 fs.
The only criticisim I had is the rear LG block is set in the lower wing. There are only balsa ribs in the wing ( a little light ply would have been nice) so on a hard ( really hard) landing I took out the front ribs. Not a difficult repair.
A friend weighed it and said it was 10.5 lbs complete with the heavily painted fabric covering. Oh you can acess the servo bay by sliding off the cockpit.

a much more capible flier than the Sportsman Av 60 waco ( garbage without modifications, wont last long)
