I've had several different sizes of these aerobats.. In general, and my experience, I'd have to say the Extra's were the easiest. I've had 3 sizes ranging from .40size up to 50cc, and each one seemed more stable then all the rest.

Then come the Edge's.. of which I've had 3 of those.. ranging in size from about 200watt electric, up to 1.80 size...These planes are just a bit different then the Extra's in general.. where the Extra was like a race car stuck to the road carving a track.. The Edge on the other hand is more like a dirt racer overcoming terrain.. it just seems "looser".. not quite as hooked up in flight.. which allows for a bit more hot-dogging(so to speak)...put a different way.. the Edge is more "slippery" in manuevers... which is actually really cool.

The Sukhoi's... wow.. I've had 2 of those.. a .40 size that was a very lively little tiger..short coupled and squirlley.. just a little hand-ful until you figured out it's combo... then I had a 1.20 size that was more of a *****-cat... but still didn't have any of the better traits of an Extra or an Edge.. I just don't think the Sukhoi ended up being as nice in model form as some would have liked.. and there's evidence of that in the fact that there doesn't seem to be nearly as many company's with Sukhoi's.... large or small..

I personally fell in love with the Extra aircraft when I saw them coming out in early/mid 90's.. and they not only look great.. the things fly incredibly well.. every one I own. The Edge runs a very close second though.. very close. Its just a matter of my mood when choosing one to fly.
