As far as I know the plane is a great flyer....I assume you could try 3D maneuvers, and the plane would response to them.......am using a 2.4 FPE in it and it performs very well..all up weight is 16 Ibs.......I'd traded for the money.........BTW, seal the gap between the ailreons and wing....was getting some ailreon flutter,but after sealing the gap,no more flutter.........one more thing..check with TNT landing gear and get a 3/16" thick landing gear from them..the one supplied with the kit is too weak..bents very easy..mine cost $30.00..........Good Luck............
