Default RE: CAP or Extra?

And I still have a very old kit built CAP 80 incher that I don't care for. It's an outstanding plane to fly but if you get it too slow it will snap on you without any stall warning. That's it's only bad problem. I have had Extras of all sizes and every one of them has always rocked the wings before they would stall. That is until now!! I have a 30% 300 that will show no signs of stall, just snaps. It didn't do it during testing but it caught me on a landing but I was real close to the ground and just lost a prop. A $30.00 landing and a lot of laughing from the peanut gallery. If I have a choice I always fly the Extras or Sukhois. OOPS!!! I mentioned another good flying plane to think about. I just can't think of any small kits being made for the Sukhois anymore.
