Here's the bottom line, I have the ability to fly a mid wing as I have flown, succesfully, a GP .60 Ugly Stik. The Stik was a lot of plane over what I'm used to and tons of fun. By the way it was configured with tail dragger gear and I have had 3 successful flights and landings. Not a lot of experience but enough that I thought I was was ready for a plane I love, the Ultimate.

The 90 is somewhat intimidating, as was the .60 when I first flew it, but as papermache said, it can be throttled back. The only way I'm going to find out is to bite the bullet, get a freakin .90, slam it in that puppy and do what all you have done in the past, go for it. It's pretty easy to get confused when you have many different opinions.

This is my first post and I appreciate the input.....thank you all....I'll let you know the outcome in a follow-up post.

PS: I will continue to ask for advice from more experienced R/C'ers.
