The Goldberg Obsession does very well,..not legal in size due to the fuse lenght (a smaller rudder will get it more legal). I flew one in one contest in Masters in 05 or 06 just for the fun of it and it does well. Scott, the guy I am training is now using it as a pattern trainer,...more food for thought.

If you are planning on flying what ever in the lower beginner classes in pattern it dosen't really matter to much,..just get something that works for you and fly. Then work on getting something else, if you desire to stay with it?


Good luck!
