I have the P-47 and the Mini Pulse......Knowing how each fly, I suggest you get a lot more stick time on the P-47 before you try the Mini Pulse. Picture in your mind, a plane that's almost twice as fast and twice as sensitive to control inputs.....That's the Mini Pulse....I love both planes. but the P-47 is slow and not very responsive.....Look at the size of the control surfaces....The ailerons on the MP extend the whole length of the wing and the elevator is the same way.....PLus the MP is substantially more aerodynamic than the P-47....I'm definately not knocking the MP....I love mine.......And some guys may disagree with me, but I'm starting to find the P-47 a little boring, even with the Park 450 brushless conversion.....I'd say that the MP would be a good move up plane, once you've mastered the P-47.....JMHO.....Pat
