RE: 3D Suggestion
I have a "Blade" 3D constructed from EPP foam. It's a little floppy but virtually unbreakable.
It does all basic 3D, harriers, walls, snaps, K/E, K/E loops, Prop hanging etc.
Best of all it wont shatter in a crash like a depron model.
Ailerons are ready hinged, elev and rudder are all moving.
buy one and have fun.
