My curare that hangs on the wall fly's nothing, and I mean nothing like my current 2m stuff. Glow or electric. There is no comparison. Plus it should weigh like 5 pounds with todays composites. Truely no comparison.
That being said. I enjoy watching older ships fly. I quit flying mine because its speed isn't constant, it's too small, and well, it doesn't quite fit into masters manuevers very well. LOL
