Default RE: Spoiled after flying pattern planes?

AAHHH yes....I'm hooked....Pattern type models fly so much smoother than the average
sport model that I just have to get a new Venus...or other pattern type.....The Venus is just a tad small for me as I'm used to flying 1/4 to 1/3 scale models, but other than that it's great.
If I could come up with a 68" to 72" model, I have the power system for it as long as there's room for batteries in the fuselage, and wing loading could be kept at a reasonable level. Venus weighed
5 1/4 pounds, so I guess the fuel model weight isn't too hard to retain when we change to electric.
