Default Built up 3d plane

Hey, I am looking into some built up 3d planes to add to my collection of various foamy models. So far, the stevens aero g-ride and the attitude look real nice to me. I would like to use an axi of some sort, because they have been great to me in the shockys, etc. Do you guys have any other reccomendations besides these two, or is one of these better than the other? Thanks...

I think you'll find the G480 Groove to be a better all around 3D model over the smaller G300.. the added size of the 45" wing presents real well in a small field setting... The Groove was also designed to accept the AXI 2808 series of motor. Enjoy.

About the only thing the G480 wont pull of is a good clean waterfall... - more of a tight loop then true tumble.

Noticed that you are in Colorado... are you planning on attending Silverthorne this weekend? I'll be there on Saturday and will most definetly bring the G300 and 480....

whats going on in Silverthorne this weekend? Just got back from the Jefco IMAC this weekend, but could most likely make it out to see the groove and g300. I've heard good things about the model from a couple people up in the springs though. Thanks!

I'm flying an attitude and I love it. I just fitted an AXI 2212/26 into mine and it is a great combination. I'm using a 3 cell TP2100 pack. I've also flown attitudes with Hacker B20-15L and B20-12L they all work great. Any of these combinations will work well in CO. The plane is a good all-around flier, it does everything well not just 3D.

I've also been looking at the G480 for something that isn't a profile - I still like the looks of a fuse.
