Default RE: Some of these reviews

MinnFlyer,

I do appreciate your honesty in that review, and it seemed as though I got a pretty good idea of what to expect. Notice the title is labeled "SOME of these reviews" some in most cases does mean most but not all.

I am glad you addressed the "Team-3D" stickers. Most good 3D pilots could look into the weight, wingloading, etc. to have a guess at how it would perform 3D. HOwever the problem lies with newer pilots that have the 3D bug. They read a lot of reviews about this type of airplane (not yours) and hear how the author raves about how great it flies, and rolls, and loops and how he just knows in the hands of "an experienced pilot, the sky would be the limit". So after reading that our newbie 3D goes out and buys the plane, trys for days, weeks and months to make the plane 3D and finally gets fed-up with the idea and leaves the hobby (or worse, buys a warbird [sm=lol.gif] ) When all he really needed was an honest review of the airplane to convince him to buy something else.
