Evil Merlin, I've got some 12 ounce planes that I guarantee can do several things in the air better than your giant plane. Larger planes ARE easier to fly 3D with, basically too easy.
You're also wrong about the whole point of this hobby....the whole point is to have fun and stay within your comfort zone, not to keep up with the Jones's.
I think you have hit upon the OP's real problem. Losing sight of enjoying oneself as opposed to keeping up with the Jones. My Dad who taught me how to build models when I was a kid still enjoys stick and tissue free flight that he can fly in his basement. At 85 he's been flying them, by his reckoning, about 79 years. He has flown many things in those years but little free flight rubber powered planes of his own design have always been his first aviation love.
Fly what YOU enjoy and don't be concerned about anyone else's opinion.
How in the world did you come up with this?
