The Revolver isn't difficult to fly at all, once it is in the air. If you can handle a sport/aerobatic plane, pattern plane or warbird, then the Revolver is perfect for you. It is sleek and fast but engine choice, prop selection and throttle management can help with that if it isn't what you are looking for. The problem comes when it is time to land. The plane just does not like to slow down. You really have to set up your landings just right. This is what gives most Revolver owners fits, myself included at first. It is a great design though and you can bring it in for 3-point landings at a fairly high angle of attack without stalling which can help slow it.

If you are thinking about one, I would seriously consider the larger, 70" version. It is still sleek, fast if you want it to be, extremely stable, very precise and very maneuverable. Being larger it just seems to maneuver a little more gracefully though which can make it more relaxing to fly. It also slows down much better than the smaller one. I think it just has to do with the larger size and thicker wing.

Some of us on RCU are even trying to convince Great Planes to build a giant scale version of the Revolver: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_95...tm.htm#9593323

All that being said, this is a beginners forum. So if there are any complete beginners reading this, don't even think about either Revolver until you've gotten past a good trainer and sport/aerobatic airplane. Then definitely get one and have a blast with it.
