I will be getting one of these next week, and would like to know if anyone has tried any 3-D stuff with one. It is the Frank Knoll design, and I do not think it was modified. i do not thik that it was designed for 3-D, but was hoping that it would be "3-D capable". It is powered with a Walker-Sachs 4.2 and it weighs around 27 lbs. The guy I am getting it from said he never tried any real 3-D, but said it was quite aerobatic; tumbles, lomcevaks, etc. If anyone has any experience with this setup, let me know what I can expect. Thanks!!

Regards,

Astrohog

Power to weight sounds a little low for some 3D moves, but being a short-coupled Bipe, it should do some great tumbles! There are plenty of moves that don't require all that power, such as harriers, blenders, walls, knife edge spins, etc. Should be a lot of fun!
