I've got this exact setup and LOVE this plane... the OS46 leaves something to be desired in the way of vertical, it definately wont hover or have unlimited vertical, but the 46 does a decent job. I find the plane extremely easy to land, and in fact have to drag it in on a shallow approach to kill off speed. It may snap with too much elevator, but I'm flying the recommended "high rates" and have yet to have it snap. Mine stalls nice and easy strait forward and lands just a bit faster than a trainer.... It is the best flying plane i have... I just returned to the hobby after 6 years away, practiced some with G2 and about 15 flights on a trainer, and then was flying the extra with no probs...
