Killer stunt plane
Hello everyone,
Throughout my sporadic RC career, I've been limited to trainers and gliders. However, that hasn't stopped me from getting those planes to do some pretty cool tricks (at least, to me they were cool). But now, I want to get a plane that is built for the job. So, to open a can of worms, what is the best plane out there for pulling off some really head turning stunts? I know this is a loaded, general question, so feel free to qualify your answers. I want something that will work ideally with a 0.46 engine and that doesn't land at 100mph (I already have a super heavy trainer that does that). Thanks in advance!

RE: Killer stunt plane
if you want a light model capable of doing mounouvres that turn heads and is cheap go to singapore hobbys and look at either the wildstyle or a funfly. the 46 would hover them and still have enough power to pull out.

Dude!!! You're in Nashville, the mecca of 3D funflys, the Pro Bro HQ!!! You need to go play with PaulSwanny and Gator, they'll show you some stuff that'll make your head spin! Also, you should be able to pick up a killer kit locally called the Burrito (designed and sold by Paul) Take a gander here!

RE: Killer stunt plane
get an Outlaw Delta, prophang to 120+ on a 36 engine, mental spin rate, flat spins, tight loops and it'll still hover over the patch.
for impressing theres little to match it

Get a Sledge 540 from Morris, or Swany Burrito. If you want an ARF, Morris has the Top Cap, and Hobby Lobby is said to have a good on on the way (Switch Blade I think).

Hey Tailtwister, how far are you from the IL. border? I just thought we could get together some time and do some flying if it gets nice out again.

RE: Killer stunt plane
I'm probably 2 to 2.5 hours north of Milwaukee. My field is about 30 minutes north of my home. As long as you have an AMA card you can fly with me at my field as a guest of the club. If you come up this way, just drop me an e-mail.
