Default RE: thinking of mojo

Have a 2 season old Mojo 60 (pre Moass) with a Saito 91 running a 14x4wide APC prop use 5% nitro most days and 35% for fun flys.
Built mine with removable wings, The mod does not add much weight and the plane will fit inside my small (Saturn) car so I do not have to beg for the van. I also have a Primo form Paul it's even better but does do things a bit faster than the Mojo.
The Moass mod was done by a very good 3D flyer to make the plane "looser" The big wing will still keep you out of trouble but with more tail and fuse area back there the plane will react faster to rudder and ele.
The standard tail will still allow you to do pinwheels, waterfalls, rising inverted spins, very tight snaps, scary hard blenders it just looks and feels like slow motion.
The Moass is quicker and more "frantic"? to me fly's more like a 40 size.
The one pce. is large you will need a pick-up, full size car or van and have a good size area for plane storage. I cut out a cardboard template and tried to fit the one pce plane into my car (no joy) carry from car into house then downstairs to workshop (just made it around corner and down stairs) If you work out of a garage or shed then a totally different deal, for me a one pce just did not work. Very happy with the 3 pce plane. Did use the balsa root ribs from the one pce wing to add sheeting support behind the ply root ribs and drilled through the ply into the balsa and added some bamboo dowels as the bolt tabs tend to pull away over time with some help from contact with Mother Earth.
