I would also like to say that the Vectorflight planes are great. I had the 66 inch extra and it was my favorite plane to fly. I flew it a couple days a week and had around 250+ flights on it when I lost it due to a bad RX battery. I have not replaced it yet as I have other projects stacked up in front of it. I will be getting another VF plane as soon as I have room for it in my hanger. This plane without a doubt was the best money I ever spent in the RC hobby. The price of this plane is way less than the quality that you get. These planes are outstanding fliers. I was using mine to practice the IMAC basic and sportsman routines and it would fly them outstanding. I had mine powered with a Thunder Tiger 91 4 stroke and it was plenty of engine for what I was doing. If you put a 91 2 stroke on it the power would be unlimited. When I build another one I will be installing a Super Tigre 90 2 stroke on it and it will have unlimited vertical performance. Don't count this plane out because of the wingloading numbers. They fly very good and handle great. They are also very easy to land and are built very solid and can take extreme flying. I was not trying to do any 3D so I cant tell you how they would do this but I can tell you that if you want to do aerobatics and just sport flying you will have to look a long time to find a plane as good as this one. The only thing that I didn't like was the wheel pants that come with it. Do yourself a favor and throw them away. Get some plastic ones from Sig and you will have some that last forever. The instructions that come with the kit are being improved so that will help in putting it together. If you have experience in putting ARF's together you will not have any problems. The hardware is all dubro and name brand stuff so you can use it all. Vectorflight has the best customer service on the planet. If you have any problems or questions at all they will take care of you. Listen to what everyone says about these planes they are not making it up. I was also a non-believer and did alot of research before I got mine. I finally said what the H*ll and took the plunge. Like I said before it was the best money I ever spent!!!! Here is a couple of pictures of my extra.
