Default RE: What Do YOU Consider 3D?

To get back to scale model airplanes V.S. "3D planes"

A scale model airplane is just as capable (More so in the right hands) than a UCD ever dreamed. I would match my fliton extra, 35% WH extra, or EF Yak up against any UCD, mayheim, or razzel [:'(] and win. And yes I have flown all of the designs listed!! The UCD is a fun plane to hover and TR with, it will do nearly every move in the book HOWEVER it cant do it as clean and perfect as a scale plane in the right hands. If I want to do some HA Rolling figure eights with a reversal in the middle and stop the rolls every other roll in a HA KE position the UCD is NOT my plane of choice. Where as the EF Yak will float through this manuver with no problems.

I forgot to add...IMO a good profile such as the OMP brand is a perfect blend of the two worlds. You can get precision yet its forgiving if you push too hard.
