Default RE: E-flite Ultimate, Hellraiser or Raptor?

The E-Flight Ultimate is setup with a GWS stick motor mount. I have a Razor 350 in mine and has plenty of power.

I have both the E-Flight and Hell Raiser and I chose to build the E-Flight first because it was an easier build. I haven't even started the Hell Raiser build because the E-Flight is a blast to fly. I'm guessing that the Hell Raiser will be a better plane for precision 3D since it has a fuse (the E-Flight is a profile), however, the E-flight has been more than enough plane to get the basic's (and more advanced stuff) down pat. Has been pretty rugged too, I've never crashed it but have done a few nose over landings without any significant damage.

As the others have said, if you are not a very experienced pilot choose a EPP plane, however, if you have some experience pattern flying (or a simulator) go ahead and start with one of these planes. Just keep your 3D attempts a few mistakes high [X(] and you will have no problems.
