Default RE: looking for a plane.

Thanks rob, I will add that one to my research list.


aeajr
I flew ARF's mainly. I can do kit builds but right now dont have the time so this one will be an ARF or RTF. As for size....similar to a 40 size can be slightly bigger or smaller, doesn't really matter. I will be flying at a AMA field w/1100ft runway. Im looking for something that I can get back up to speed on. Ive flown on real flight and have no trouble with really any of the planes, but in real life i want something I can handle well. I also don't want to get bored with it. something that slows down nice for landing, doesn't have to be landed really fast. Something that can do some basic aerobatics. Loops, Rolls, Snaps, Knife edge.

Don't want a pattern plane however... probably will eventually end up in the 3d realm.

I want a ultimate bipe soon which I can also fly well on the sim. But I think getting it now would be jumping the gun even tough with duel rates you can really dumb them down.

Radio ... futaba 7 computer radio. Might be switching to spectrum7 channel. Haven't decided.

Price... well not really sure. 350 on radio and another 350 on everything else. Could be more... would be nice if it were less. I guess if I want it bad enough I will get it. Would like to keep it reasonable



Hope that helps you some more. I appreciate your feedback.
