I agree with BasinBum: design obslete, crow is useless. I have done many flights on my friend's USL/Saito 1.80. It actually flew slow better without flaps or crow, and is not even decent at 3D-ing. If you are looking for first 3D plane, I would recommend the Funatana 40/Saito-91 over anything. The only shortcoming I found: wing rocking on harrier (like the Funtana 90, and USL), but it's agreat inexpensive way to learn some 3D.
