Default RE: ESM katana 40

ORIGINAL: Bxtreme aviator

hi guys

im new in da flying bisniss am 13 years old and hav only flown for 2 years. i dont hav dat much experience im still flying my 2 trainers and am looking at da katana 40.my instructer owns da local hobby shop and has 1 der. I gave da deposit alredy so im lockin forward to flying da thing. Is it realy dat heavy?da guys here say dat it will run nicley with a OS 46 2 stroke i have 1 hear so it wil save me lots.and are there problems with da CG (center of gravity) with da plane i know dat da twists hav tail heavy problems.

thanks jp

every landing you walk away from is a good landing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sure if you want to fly normal aerobatics (Loops, avalanches, cubans and the lot) this brick will be good fun even with a .46 on it. You decide. You want to 3D this sucker? Forget it, I doubt the plane will even be capable and if it is it'll probably do so with only sweat and tears. If you're gonna use it for an advanced flying brick transition from your trainer you'll have a ball with it...I think!
