RE: 3d choice
Al Lewis: I'm really surprised to see a FuntanaX50 flying that well. I know it was just the maiden day out, but I didn't really see much 3D in the video...which is where I think it breaks down. I'm also amazed that it knife edged that well. Is it a newer one? Two friends and I all got FuntanaX50's when they were still quite new...and they were all awful. The landing gear plate tore with the slightest touch. Walls were bad, waterfalls were bad, harriers were bad, high speed flight was poor. I hope they've fixed all those things since then, because the plane floated forever and took off in no time. Its roll rate was great, and it has the second prettiest snap rolls of any plane I've ever seen.
I'm not meaning to bash the Funtana's, even though it kind of sounds that way. I'm just trying to recommend the fliton.
