Default Too fast?

This is the second weekend we've flown combat, what a BLAST!!!
I got shot down twice today, one cut was two feet from my tail.
I really think these planes are too fast for combat with the Magnum 36 engines. These planes are extremely maneuverable and I'm amazed they stay together, haven't snapped a wing or a stab yet.

Sunday: The club Prez and I had our first midair today destroying both planes. The combined speed had to be around 150 mph, what a noise it made. Of course mine had to crash on the runway from about 200 feet with most of the right wing missing.
Destroyed my receiver and the engine turns over real hard but we already have replacements. This is too much fun!
