Which will it be?
I'm ready to buy my next plane, and I've got it down to two. What i'm going for this time around is a scale look, I want something with the wheel ferrings, enclosed engine, flaps maybe, a little bigger than the 40 sized i'm flying now, ect.
The first of my choices is the Great planes Cap 580, smaller 46 one, not the 1/3. I like this plane alot, its got a nice look to it. I'm just worried it wont be big enough to satisfy me. I also was wondering if this plane is capable of hovering with a 4-stroke .70 engine. If its able to hover that would be nice.
My other candidate is the Great Planes RV4, 1/4 scale. This plane is real nice, also great looking, has flaps, and a generous 70 inch wingspan. But what i'm worried about with this one is that it might get a little boring. I know its not a super aerobatic plane. But can do some simple things.
Does anybody have any input? I know it all comes down to the personal pilots taste, but any help to make up my mind would be great.
