Default Another recommendation for the "Extase"

I recently did a review on the "Extase", (.60-size 3D ARF) which you can find at my web site, at http://www.nextcraft.com/rcpp_extase01.html

Now that I've got another 50 flights on it, I have to tell you that this is becoming one of the favorites at our club. Everybody really has a ball flying it. Today, I flew it around on high rates, with the (YS .91) at about 2500 rpm, and while just barely moving through the sky, was still able to roll the plane quickly, and slowly transition to a harrier. There was about a 15mph wind that let me easily bring the plane down in a harrier, and I'm not even a "3D guy" yet. Over and over, I did the same maneuver, which was to slow the plane WAY down, out over the tall grass, and just nurse it in low in a low angle of attack "sorta-harrier" and land with almost no rollout. This is a FUN airplane. (No, I don't work for RC Plane Power, nor do I receive any payment for any of this... It's just true.) The photo attached isn't from today... Just wanted to show you the airplane.)
