RE: New Plane suggestions
If you want to compete I recommend going as big and you are willing to spend or can afford. If you want to stay glow I recommend a Goldberg Sukhoi SU-26MX or similiar with a Saito 180 or a Quique Yak 54 73" with a Saito 180 or bigger. If you want to fly like the "big boys" you need the power to weight ratio the big boys have.
