I recently acquired a Live Wire Champion at a swap meet. It has a 55" wingspan and is powered by an OS .25FP engine with a six ounce gas tank and operates on three channels. I now have made over 51 flights flights with it and it flies beautifully. I have used it as a slow flyer with the engine at half throttle or less most of the time. Each flight under power has averaged over 25 minutes. Occasionally, I can catch a thermal and it has glided for over 25 minutes after the engine cut. This plane flies on the wing and is a good change of pace from all the high powered designs of today. With its relatively large dihedral it absolutely refuses to snap on stalls. I heartily recommend this design if you are looking for a change of pace in flying.
