Hi Gang,
I'm ready to go for the Tower Hobby HOBBISTAR 60 MKIII
I see it has the same wing as the Avistar but has the more traditional wing tips.
Now i'm asking myself is this big bird will fly a bit faster with the OS 65LA then the Avistar with an OS 46 BB ABC engine?
I'm looking for something bigger that will do a bit better then the Avistar and allow me to do loops, rolls and vertical climbs.
Does anyone here have any experience with this plane or perhaps seen it fly?
Would appreciate any suggestions.

Well I love the Avistar. and with a good .46 BB engine it will about hover. The .40LA will fly it through all the manouvers you listed. I'm sure I would like the Hobbistar 60 as well if I had the chance to fly one... with a Saito 1.25 Uh-Oh new project
The TH trainers are nice but I think i'm going to take the one with a size 40 engine on it and round off those wing tips.
There nust be a reason why they didn't put them on that MKIII Trainer
I really don't need this big plane but have to have it
