Default U-Can-Do 3D Foamy

Hey.... I was thinking about getting the U Can Do 3D Foamy for Christmas this year and i was just wondering if it was a good 3D plane and how well it flys in a park atmosphere


Thanks..........

Iv had 2 of them and there not a bad 3D trainer, they are incredibly easy to keep in a small field, honestly i fly mine in my backyard. And there tough as nails.
Go for it hard to go wrong for 60 buks

I have one and I upgraded it to a brushless Big Big plus. But I do think if I was going to do it again I would look closer at the GP yak 55 3d park flyer. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...4&I=LXJCC2&P=K
a bit cheeper and the fuse is more ridged . I think the biggest plus would be the aileron servos on the yak are above the wing. And the YCD 3D Foamy has them on the bottom side ! The down side of this YCD having them on the bottom is. That they are subject to ripping out grass or getting hit when landing. Other wise I have a blast with it. I added a strip of figerglass strapping tape to each side of the fuse to stiffen it up a bit. That didnt help its looks any LOL. But it did take a lot of [swayble ] out of it .

we flew the u-can-do foamie at the hotel during seff this year and had a blast with it, it didn't matter if we hit the rails or the side of the hotel, a litle hot glue and it was back in the air. we even knocked a big chunck out the leading edge and hot glued it back and still flew good!!! if you are going to run the stock setup make sure to get extra gears!!! even with the prop saver they still strip easy!!!
