I like bigger better, but it does carry a higher pucker factor. Once you get over this, you won't want to go small again. I have a 40 size ultimate and a 120 size ultimate. Both fly great, but personally the 120 flies much better, much easier, and is very very visible. Now compare to this to my new 50cc Extra 260, and the airplane is even more easy to fly, easier to land, and handles the wind better. the downsize is the insides are way more complex, and there are more failure points. One switch? Nah, make that two switches to be safe, ignition battery, ignition module throwing interference, servos binding on multiple servo surfaces, elevator halves matching, you get the picture. So while a larger plane is easier to fly, it is definitely harder to maintain. Just my .02.
