Don''t understand your comment on hovering, this plane will hover indefinatly if you ballance the throttle and elevator correctly, you may need to reflex the ailerons up a small amount to stop the wing rock, but it will definatly hover for as long as you like.

Just had a thought, do you guys know the difference between a hover, harrier and a prop hang? we could be talking on crossed perspectives here.

With the MVVS 45 in my old one it would do all three, a succesful prop hang is directly related to the engine power and thrust you can achive with the prop you have, I can prop hang my F3A Swallow and Leo with a low pitch big dia prop, but that is not what these planes are designed for, again anything will prop hang if you set it up correctly, just some are more work to keep them there than others.

I agree with you that this is not a dedicated 3d plane though, its too heavy for its wing area and will snap if provoked, it also takes some time to recover from a spin and needs oposite rudder to make it recover on line, it also reflexed up ailerons on landing to get the speed down for a short approuch, I have this set on a switched landing condition so that the ailerons reflex up at low throttle, but neutralise if I have to open up and go around, they are also available to me on a side slider so that I can use them in the hover harrier/elevator if the wind is not blowing enough to not need them.
