Default RE: Global Freestyle ARF suitable for beginning pattern?

Thanks Gents,

I decided to get it and the model was delivered today. It looks very good. Most of the covering is fine although there are a few wrinkles on the tail surfaces (still much less than my GP skybolt had out of the box). The ailerons and rudder are huge compared to my four star. Is such large surfaces the norm for a pattern plane. I can see that i will probably add some tri-stock to the landing gear plate. Other than that it looks well constructed.

Looking at the size of the plane in the flesh, i'm thinking i'll ask Mrs Clause to get me a .55 AX instead of using my TT .46Pro. I'm partial to the AX line of motors going by my success with the .75 on the Skybolt.
