RE: First 3D airplane
u- can -do 40 is a great choice and i think better than a funtana 40, i had the funtana and several club members of mine have had it and their's did the same thing as mine did. it has a tail stall caristic. i have flewn the u-can-do 40 and the 60 and the new giant size and they all fly great and do just about any 3-d manuver. it for someone still learning things it will be very tame for you!!!! take a look at the u-can-do!!!!
and probbily the best motor you could put on it is a 70 4-stroke, i flew one for a freind that had a 46 2 stroke and it had enough to fly it but no 3-d power!!!!
