If you dont mind building try the IH Capiche 50, easy build, brilliant plane, also ballistic with a 91fx. Quite expensive depending on the options you get but well worth the money. They're made by [link=http://www.flycapiche.co.uk]island hobbies[/link] and distributed around the world (tho not much yet) by [link=http://www.carboncopyuk.com]carbon copy[/link] .

if you put a 91 fx in the nose of a capiche 50 you are ask ing for trouble and it at any point you use full throttle the model would almost certinaly be riped apart MADNESS

keep the thread clean guys....this guy is asking for advice on planes here not a debate on whats the best engine for a capiche![:@] Remember where this got us last year!!!![>:]

Probably better off looking at that YT international adrenaline which has been recommended by a few.

Capiche 50 is a fantastic plane but for a 91fx youre pushing it a bit. Don't think his 91fx will be the ideal engine for this plane.....if it was a YS 63 it would be a different matter altogether.....

Yellow Aircraft has a 60 size edge 540t that would fit that motor just perfect. Ive got one with a 91 FS that is gonna get the 91 fx this summer. Ive heard that the 91 fx on this plane is insane and the plane is very well built and should handle the power just fine. I love mine thus far and can't wait for summer to get here so I can fly it again.

Thanks for your comments, so far, i cant find here in spain the funtana, i was thinking about the UCD 60, also i had a Camodel´s Funky, wich flew very well and Camodel have two airplanes that can fit the bill wich are the Epsilon and the Fantasy, but i dont know if they are more on the acrobatic side than on the 3D...
thank anyway.

Buy the EPSILON. Have you seen the video? This plane does 3D, Looks COOL to. A frined of mine has the U CAN DO 60 with a 91FX and it is ok. The U CAN DO 46 has a problem with the wing, i would wait until great planes fixes the problem before i would consider one. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR CHOICE.
