Default CA Models Funky 40?

Plane's Plus has a sale on these for $99 bucks. I really like the looks of this model but, I haven't heard to much about it other than what type of engine to use on it. So can anyone comment on how this thing Flys, builds.........etc. It looks like it will 3D well, but how about just normal flying such as loops,rolls,snaps, and spins? I'm kinda lookin for something sleeker to take the place of my Sig SE. So any thoughts? Thanks!

It is a good looking model. Fellow clubmember at my field had one. Can't give you a real good flight report on it because on his second flight the wing snapped in half. Not sure why really. If you get one i'd be very careful with it and make sure you check it over with a fine tooth comb.

I have one. I think it flies great! It is not for the faint of heart...But it will do whatever you ask of it. Torque Rolls, Hovering, Waterfalls, Blenders, Inverted Flat Spins , etc. I have been real tough on mine. I had an engine flame out in a hover less than 10 feet off the ground. The only damage was a broken prop ( well it bruised my pride, but that doesn't count). It is a very well thought out design. Light, but very strong. $99.00 - Buy it!
