Default Where to begin...

At this moment I'm flying a cap 232 from MW, powered by a ZG 45.
I'm happy with its performance but it not capable of doing 3D.

My next step is buying a new plane specifically for 3D with a max span of 100 inch.
I have experience in 3D stuff, but this was with smaller aircraft

My question is: wich engine and plane would you choose to buy (I'm from Holland so it has to be from Europe)

I prefer the extra 300 or 330, giles or edge..


Maybe this is a frequently asked question, but it's a lot money........

Thanks in advance!

Composite-ARF 2.6m Extra + ZDZ 80.

There are a number of fliers over here in the states with this combo and area very pleased. Plane is around $1000 US dollars, Engine is around $600. Pretty good deal and awesome performance- plus it's built.
