Default Best flying biplanes?

Depends on your level of flying. If your comfortable with mid and low wing sport fliers like the CG 300 I would recommend an Ultimate. That was my first aerobatic Bipe and it is a wonderful plane. I had the CG with an OS 120 4-stroker and the vertical was outstanding! The Ultimate is a very stable flier and extremely easy to land if you keep it light! I have also had or flown a Miles Reed designed 1/3 scale weeks Solution, very beautiful plane and flies great. It was powered by a D&B 3.7. A Byron's 1/3 scale Pitts Special with a Satio 270 twin. Right now I have one of the GP 1/3 Pitts ARF's with a US41 for power, FANTASTIC plane, and a Byron's 1/3 scale Christian Eagle with a Satio 270 Twin. Both are great fliers but are not as easy to land as most others, you have to keep just a small amount of throttle to them and be easy on the sticks.
