Hi Matt,

I cannot say enough how much I love my F 90. Is is by far the best plane I have ever owned around that size (and it also happens to be the most affordable). I still recommend better hardware, 4-40m linkage, strong servos (mine are 111oz/in@6V), and fly it SLOW.
I think that a few unfortunate guys may have gotten models with defects not fixed before before flying, and I am truly sorry for them. But it also seems that the notions of SLOW and 3D flying are very variable upon the pilots' prior experiences. I have known a while that if I flew my 33% CAP with the DA 100 at WOT, I would likely loose a very expensive plane; even more so with the 42% extra and DA 150. So I am very cautious with throttle management, and I love all those plane!

My Friend Rioji has a little time during the week, so he probably has over 200 flights with his F 90/ Saito 1.50, and he loves it even more than me.

I hope you get to be one of the many happy F 90 owners.
