I am ready for next plane. I have good trainer. Then 4 star 60 and quite good with it.
I like bigger planes. About 66 - 72 inch wingspan.
Also I seem to prefer the sport / aerobatic plane rather than the scale or warbird style.
What would be your thoughts? Thanks.
I think, from your original post, that the Vector Flight 66" Extra ARF would be a great selection for you. Made in Canada, excellent assembly and flight characteristics, wonderful company to deal with, and quite complete. All for the price of a good kit.
The engine from your 4 Star 60 would probably fly it, or put an ST G90 (or larger engine) on it for more vertical.
Good luck,

Personally I think VectorFlight is a well kept secret that is slowly getting out. Great airplanes that are built like a tank and still light and the customer service is second to none. These folks really do care about you and your plane and it is not uncommon that they will ask several times about how the build process is going and how it is flying and is there anything that you would recommend or did not like about it or them. I know this to be fact as I had a problem with my Edge's fuselage, they decided to give something a try that I had suggested. Another RCU member also suggested something that was different but had to do with the same issue. They took the best of both suggestions and built a protoype fuselage. They have taken it through their testing and I now have it in my grubby little hands to see how it works for me.
If I like it then it sounds very much like they are going to make the change permanent. Cool stuff, never thought I would be part of making a change to a product. This is just my story, there are others out there with similar experiences with them.
Now that is customer service. [X(]
