Hey Jack, Lots of questions. I had a couple of Twists and I'll have to say I personally had a hard time flying them. Maybe I just wasn't good enough to fly it but I found it to be twitchy. Barely any inputs and I was all over the place with. Again, maybe I just didn't fly it right. I now fly an OMP Katana profile and fly it very well. I sometimes wonder if it's me flying it. I only mention that because they are both short, quick turning planes and I fly the Katana like a bandit. Now the U C Do, that's a different story. I find it much easier and funner to fly. (by the way, before I forget, I flew a U C Do 60 with an OS 91 and it was a dog too) The 46 with a 82, 91 or 100 is a great plane. Lots of fun with that combo.
But there are certainly a bunch of people that do well with the Twists. Is there anyone where you fly that has a Twist that you can try out?
