Same here i almost bought 1 a while back but a long time ago i promised my self id never buy another plane until i saw some video of it. I had a plane similer to the funstar it was a giant scale planes giles 202 3d it flew very nice 1 of the best hovering planes ive flown but not much for knife edge though. Hope you enjoy it!

i used a OS 61 max that runs great with 10% nitro...hover at 1/3 throttle. .and i used high torque metal gear servos in the rudder and in the elevator.

I just maidened my Funstar today. A bit windy, but it flew great! This is my first 3d plane so I'm still learning so I just flip and flop around in the air. It can definitely fly super slow. I'm flying it with an FX .46 and I scoot around at 1/3 throttle. Plenty of power and I could physdo hover at half throttle. The only problem with the plane so far is the sh**ty landing gear. It spreads out on landing and breaks the prop. I'm going to give the Dubro super strength gear a try. I also can't seem to get this thing to flat spin.

Cheers,

Dave

hi guys i have been adding some videos to rcuvideos.com of the funstar doing 3d. i have been doing this because its a very good airplane but nobody use it for 3d or nobody make videos of it. if do you have one video please post it to talk about it. for making a good 3d with this airplane you have to correct before the airplane move, because the rudder doesn't have enought authority like in a U can do to correct after an error. if do you have some question about this airplane just tell me, i will be looking the post everytime i can. see ya
