ORIGINAL: samolot

You know what guys, i decided to take a little more care for myself and my planes so i think ill go with this setup:

1) Super Sportster: .46 FX

2) Sonic 500: .25 LA

3) Patriot XL

I know its a little long way, but i dont want to have an overload of a plane for me out there. The sonic 500 seems very nice, but i still think i might need something in between, thanks again guys for your input!

I think the Super Sport is a great choice... I have one and it a beautiful flying plane... It is really just a saller T-34. I use the landing gear off my rekitted T-34's on it... Given that the T-34 is used for plyon racing around here with a 46fx in it and they are clocked on radar at over 90mph the smaller Super Sport should be able to match that at least... I have an Irvine .53 in mine and it can be proped to go faster then I want...
The Super Sport is one of those planes that fly and land so nice that once you have one it becomes one of those planes you always want in your fleet.. I am talking about the Super Sport 40S that comes with the cowl here. They also sell a earlier version 40 with no cowl that had a couple issues if I remember correctly...
