I've kind of been wondering the same thing. I've been spending a lot of time in RealFlight G4 with various models, seeing how they fly (I'm only assuming G4 is an accurate base of reference, as it's what I've been told by plenty of people). All the UCDs I've tried in G4 have been absolutely awful, they handle bizarrely and barely have enough power to pull out of a hover. Additionally I despise the way they look, but if it was actually some outstanding flying machine I could overlook that.

Now granted, I haven't actually flown any 3d in real life, and for all I know G4 could be completely inaccurate (though it seems to be spot on for planes similar to what I have been flying). I've had the most success flying the giant 1/3 scale models in the sim, though I know I'm not ready to drop that kind of cash on a plane. Does anyone have any model suggestions based on this

Edit: Oh, and I'm interested in all planes, not just what Tower has available.
