Thanks for the quick reply Ram_Z. I am sorry for the early loss of your plane.

I am actually looking to compete outside my country and wanted to get a decent machine which will go the distance. I used to fly pattern but went into IMAC and 3D the last few years but miss competition. There aren't any local competitions which are flown to FAI standards so the old trusty Rubin had been good enough locally. But it will not do as it does not snap well and there has been much improvement in design since then. Since there were no 2m patterships available here, I got myself a Leo 110 (from CMP) as a practice plane and have set it up with an 0S 1.20 AX. It tracks quite well actually but I need some serious action.

How did you do at Cyprus? Do you compete regularly ? Are you going this year ? How many people attend this event and is there a variety of nationalities. I checked the FAI calender and there is no event planned for the Asian - Oceanic region this year.

As for the Impulse, how will it fair against the Brio or Astral XX or the new Integral (from ZN Line and Comp ARF). BVM props have come out with a new one - "Shinden" I think. What is your take on it ? I am on a budget but would spend what I have to get a good airframe.
