Default 1.08 to 1.80 help?

I was wanting to get a 3d plane to fit a range of engine from 1.08 to 1.80 sized. I would like it to be a wild 3d plane. Perferably an extra or edge.
Thanks

Hangar 9 Edge! 27% scale, awesome flyer. Around 80 inch wingspan, give or take a couple. More for 180 to 210 size, preferrably a Moki. Great plane for 3D and IMAC.

onmy other forum they said they don't fly good is that only if you build it heavy. very nice plane though. Is their any plane like that in a kit or how a bout a futana .90 how about those.
Thanks

To make a 1.08 into a 1.8 just swap the zero and eight!

i've got the flair edge 540. 72" wingspan for 90-1.08 2 stroke. mines got a moki 1.35 in it. i'm not much of a 3d pilot, but it'll do a quarter loop from knife edge to vertical... and then disapear through the clouds. more than engough go for me.

if you can get hold of a hangar 9 72" cap this is really good.. a lot better than the newer edge at the 3d stuff.

Dave patrick models are excellent. The Katana 72" from GSP is pretty good too... we're flying them over here with moki 1.35s ... not as good as the cap for 3d but theyre still better than the edge IMO.. especially for the money.

Thanks Nathan! I think a Hangar 9 Cap would be a nice big plane like I asked for in the other topic

too small for smoke.. nor would an engine (at least a 2 stroke) of that size bye anywhere near hto enough to run smoke... it owuld just look like a rich engine.. chances are that it would put the engien out at lower revs too.

get yourself a gasser for smoke... 30% is about the minimum size model that will begin to do justice.

Would this be a wild 3d machin though. Me and my brothers are wanting to start our own 3d club to go out and show off a little together and we are practiceing formation but that is very hard to do.
Thanks

I am not sure to much about gas planes haven't flown them in years due to we used to crash them constantly mostly me that is why my nickname around here is crasher. lol
