Default G force wing

Hey guys, I posted this just before I found this part of the forum I was hoping some of the guys here could help out on this one.

The super extra from www.3dfoamy.com looks amazing. It is light, big, stable, and inexpensive.
I would love to get one, but generally, foamies lack the "real plane feel"
They are fine while you are hovering, knife edgeing, or doing any other 3d, but when you just feel like flying around a little inbetween manuvers, they are a big let-down. You know what i mean, you can roll it 30 degrees, feed in a little rudder and pull up slightly, and it wont come around like a plane with an airfoil. It doesn't feel right to fly, If you want to turn it, you are better off just using straight rudder. I don't like that feeling at all.

The super extra though has the G force wing, which is suppossed to create a type of symmetrical airfoil feel. I would like to hear from some people who have experience with this plane how it flies. I am hoping that the new wing actually makes a difference, and it will fly just like it had a symm. airfoil.

also, which one should I go with, the Extra, or Cap?

Default RE: G force wing

The G Force wing does help it fly much better than a flat plate wing. It even helps them glide much better. I will also add that foamy biplanes seem to fly a bit smoother than do mono wing planes. I'm not sure why, but they just do. The bipes can be bit tougher to 3D though, they just fly differently. Coupling is often more of an issue with bipes, once you get used to it it's no big deal and much prefer bipes.
