Default RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D

I just finished reading this thread from start to finish. Wow.

I have a new Super Tigre .45 and I'm strongly considering getting a Twist. Here in Luxembourg it would probably be very expensive, so I'm thinking of having one sent to my sister's address in England from a UK supplier, where it will be picked up by another family member. Even then it would cost £93, which is $160. A bit depressing, since in the US that would buy a Funtana with some left over.[X(]

Is it worth it? Or should I find something closer to home - it's not like I haven't tried. I've been looking all over for a .46 sized plane with some 3D ability that isn't too pricey and doesn't look awful. The choice is surprisingly limited.

I would use cheap Futaba S148 servos and the ST45 mentioned above. From what I've read (all 2900+ posts) that will do nicely.

Thanks,
Matthew

P.S. And happy new year!!!
