Hi everybody. I killed my Showtime at the weekend [] and have a nylon bag of equipments looking for a home. I am looking for a light weight, 3D airplane for my YS110 and HS-5475 servos.

Fusion is cheaper if OMP still have some left on closeout but if you want to do some serious 3D then the OMP YAK is better.

Square knife edge loops! Climbing flat spins!

I like mine.

Strip the servos apart and check all the teeth and then load test the motors. 3-D models have a lot of leverage in the control surfaces with tight linkages and a crash that totaled the Showtime may have damaged the servos.

You can get out cheap ($120 US at Tower) with a Goldberg Wild Stik 1.20 I have the smaller Hot Stik (low wing) and it is a blast.

The Fliton planes are absolutely awesome...but are well over-powered with a Saito 100. A YS-110 may be too heavy for proper wingloading. If you do go with a Fliton plane, put two elevator servos in the tail and the tank on the CG and it'll probably balance correctly. These planes aren't meant for speed, but are more than fast enough and smooth enough for good IMAC flying. I maidened mine in like 20kt winds and it was solid as all else. There are threads on both the Edge and the Extra.

The Mojo 65 looks awesome, by the way! Good luck choosing.

Hey, not to bug you or anything...but Fliton just came out with a 120 sized plane. It's a big Extra 330S: http://fliton.com/new/doc/frame.asp. It may be too heavy for awesome 3D, but I have no doubt that with a light motor (YS110 is lighter than a 36cc gas engine) it'll have tremendously low wing-loading. There's a thread that was started about it. I'll see if I can find the link.

I just got the Baby Edge from Wild Hare. Great plane, mine came out to 9.8lbs with a Brillelli 26cc.
