anyone?

RE: I need help with coosing a first 3d.
 

Have seen some very good flying from the 3styla and rush. If you want to be able to do pattern/freestyle aerobatics then i would pick the rush, otherwise if you want a 3D funfly then the 3styla.
What engine were you looking to use?

I also recommend the Capiche 50, because ive got one and it flies pattern and 3D really well. I have learnt a great deal from it and its brought me a long way. Like the 3styla its a kit

RE: I need help with coosing a first 3d.
 

i do look for pattern/freestyle aerobatics . about engine i haven't thought about it yet but i think it will be 2 stroke os or super tigre.
what do you suggest more, the rush or the Capiche 50 ?

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

You should really go for the Funtana 40. It's a blast to fly with a 61 two stroke or an 82 or 91 four stroke!!

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

the rush and capiche are far better for pattern and freestyle aeros than the funtana- they both have the required side area for really good Knife Edge.
However whatever you choose out of these three will probably teach you a lot;)

If you want info on the Capiche 50 take a look at www.flycapiche.co.uk
It way lighter than the funtana. The engine you'd be looking at would be a super tigre 50 or something like that.

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

Go with the capiche! The F40 is a good plane I have both of them, but for what your wanting I think (IN MY OPINION) is the capiche.

Do some reading and decide for yourself.

good luck whatever you decide.:D

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

I'm curious, in what way the funtana is better than the capiche/rush ?

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

For a first 3D plane? OK....

Is this to learn 3D or perform 3D?

I would highly recommend an electric 3DX or a SPA3D, PQHOR (SPAD) to learn on. 3DX is foam and will take abuse better if it is not too hard. Don't let it fool you, the 3DX uses the same control movements as the bigger planes.

I would recommend a Profile as your first performing 3D plane. Then move up to a Funtana , Capache, U-Can-Do, etc...

The Freestyle rush is almost a U-Can-Do.

i am not gonna buy an electric foamy and i dont like profiles. the plane will be my first 3d but i dont need to learn with it.

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

Icorrect me if i'm wrong but i think what he was talking about here is whats suitable to help you learn how to 3d, not how to fly;)

I have heard that the Funtana is slightly more stable in the hover than the capiche.

The capiche is made to fly, not to crash but can still shake off abusive harrier landings. Leave crashing to the simulator;)

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

i think i understand him, i meant i know how to do 3d but this will be my first 3d plane .

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

OK, So you just want a 3D plane. Go with the Funtana :D

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

by the way, anyone knows the https://www.ultra-rc.com yak or the katana ?

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

Lamborghini, Since you don't need to learn to 3D, I would say go with the Funtana S 90. It is almost a copy of the Katana and it is a bigger plane. If this is not feasable, the the 40 size would do fine also, or a U-can-Do 46 or 60 size would be a fine choice also.

Have Fun,
DTB

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

Why don't you like profiles? If you really wanna 3d, you can't beat a profile for performance and wing loading.......

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

well thanks i'll consider it too when i'll make my final decision

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

well maybe there are some people that wont agree with me but i just think they are ugly

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

maybe some people wont agree with me but i think they are not "good looking" and i want a plane that i'll love his appearance

i'm sorry it came out in two messages my internet got stuck

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

what about the u can do 46..
i have a couple of freind that use to fly 3d airplanes no into heli's
they like ucan do #1 then funtana then the 540 extreme profile..all good..
funtana is a hit or miss on wing drop i'v herd,there good ones and bad ones.
remmember planes are built to fly not crash,,,,a good 3d plane will be very light.with a good power to weight rat, but if the crash just pull the goodees out and get anther arf...

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

That's a common complaint... I understand... But you owe it to yourself to fly one... Just try it... You'll be amazed at what they can do.... I'd be willing to bet the appearance factor would become a non issue....

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

Damn dude, are you like from Israel or something??

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

build a columbo anderson FUNKY 40 it will do it all.

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

better yet buy a funtana 90 it will do it all , and it flies like a big plane so smooth. FUN-tana:D:D:D

RE: I need help with choosing a first 3d.
 

yes, why ?

---------------
well now after each message says to buy another plane i'm a little bit confused.
I think i'll ask some friend of mine with a profile plane to let me try it.
