Default typhoon 3d

I was wondering if a stock typhoon out of the box is capable of hovering and doing all 3d, i have nitro planes but no electrics and don't have much money. I was going to build a yak54f but its going to cost to much money. Do you think i would be happy with this plane flying in the yard doing 3d and just regular flying.

I'd say its a pretty decent plane. As far as hovering goes, you better be 100 feet up because it can't pull out of it. I would try something like an E-Flite Tribute for flying around your house.

could i upgrade the motor without changing anything else, also i have a big yard so the size of the yard is not a problem.

Yeah, you could upgrade to an e-flite 480 outrunner, but then you will need a bigger esc, and battery.

mine has TONS of power, all you have to do is run it with a 2100 3 cell thunder power pro lite lipo. and replace the two rear servos (they are junk)
