Default Crashed My harrier need a new plane

I crashed my harrier today and I need a new plane.I am going to buy a new engine for the plane. I dont want one much bigger that the harrier. I was thinking of the funtana, but theres so many 3d planes i cant decide.I will get some pics of my harrier.

What happened to your harrier?
Im looking at getting one, was curiuous how you liked it, what didnt you like.

As far as a new 3D plane..... I have read quite a bit that people actually perfered the Harrier to the Funtana.
Id stick with the harrier.

Sorry to hear about your plane.

You don't mention what size you are looking for but here are a few I have experience with:
UCD60 w/Saito 100 or YS 110. Fun, Fun airplane. Will do anything just not as pretty as some
UCD46 with Saito 82 to 91 to 100. Flys better than the 60 and a ton of fun. I'm on my 5th. I don't think I'll ever be without one of these.
Mayhem w/ Saito 100 or YS110 This is a better flyer than the UCD but still not very precise but will do any 3D manuever
Showtime with YS 110 or Saito 150 3D doesn't get any better than this.
Funtana with any engine. Don't buy this plane. You will be disappointed.
Thanks
Barry

I have a U-CAN'T-DO 3D 60. I hated it so bad, I mothballed it. I think that plane flies like poop. It will 3D, but GAWD is it SLOPPY!!! It hovers easily, but thats about the only thing I thought it did very well.

Whats wrong with the Funtana? I've never had one. I got the impression they flew pretty good. Please elaborate.

Over weight...need modifications, over hyped...


What about a profile...now That is 3D...One of the OMP profiles, a Mojo, Burrito, etc.....
(well, Mr. Sock doesn't think so... but we know better....and that is a story for another day)

Try flying a F90 with a light .91 engine with good fuel and a 3D prop.
You'll be amazed. An F40 will fly better with a .46 than a .61 due to weight if it has a 3D prop and good fuel.

I have a harrier 90 and I liked it but I want to try somthing new. I bought it used and the engine on it did not run good.It was a saito 120, I like saito but I think this one was old. It dead sticked heading right for the pits so i tryed to turn it and it stalled about 3 feet off the ground and crashed. It broke it in half and messed up the wing. I like the showtime and the f90. I really dont like the proiles.I also like the aero works 60/90 edge but im not sure if it will 3d.

woops- The Funtana-40 comes out WAY tail havy with a 46 or similar up front.... Move the battery all you want- []

My F-40 balanced perfectly and "flies light" with a G-90

I do ant a UCS-46 though.... Seems it'd be a fun throw around plane-
