RE: Best 90 size pattern plane
If you want to build a kit, the MK Topstar 1.10 or Skystar .90 are excellent, modern choices. Designed around the YS 91/1.10, but please do NOT use the MK soft mount. The kits are about $300
In an ARF a notch ahead in quality compared to the others, look at Planes Plus Dream 1.10. Very light, beautiful workmanship, again designed for the YS 1.10. The cost is about $450
One thing to consider (and I know as I went the MK Skystar route) is that for what you will spend outfitting either of these two, you can have a 2 meter Focus with an OS 1.60 for the same or less money. The Focus does fly very well, personally I do not care for the looks...but they fly well and the price is now below $400 for an ARC.
In either case get either digital or at least coreless double BB servos from either JR or Futaba- makes a big difference. There were some outstanding articles recently on control system setup in the K-Factor (NSRCA publication)- worth a look.
Good luck- let us know what you wind up with.
