RE: Global Freestyle ARF suitable for beginning pattern?
Very good for beginner pattern, one of the best flying planes of this size. Very stable flier. Be careful of high rates, this plane will go from mild to wild in a quick second. The only thing I do not like is that it snaps are ugly (in a pattern sense). To quote Troy N.; "it gets deep into the snap".
I still have one, put about 40 flights on it during the last 3 weeks. ys 63 is perfect, but it will fly fine with a 46.
Hopefully Troy N. will chime in, he did a review a few years back.
