I don't think there is such thing as a good hybrid 3D / Pattern plane. Once you start putting counter
balances on control surfaces and setting up pattern / 3d dual rates you have pretty much taken the
pattern out of the plane. you lost servo resolution, mecanical advantage, and the planes ability
to present well. however if you really want a dual pupose plane then I am sure you will not
have a problem if it doesn't do either perfectly. This is my opinion and isn't even worth 2 cents.
