Default RE: TWIST 40 VS. TANGO????

T.S. is right and well said about this one. I have the twist 60 and itlooks pretty convincingdoing all the moves you listed. But its way way way more work to learn them and the end result isn't what you'd get with a modern design. Besides just the power to weight thing, learning to truly control wing rock is one thing on something like a mojo/primo that harriers well. Its really daunting on these older designs that have lots of wing rock built in. Life's too short. Get a modern profile.

Having said all that, it always makes me laugh when somebody says these old planes can't 3D. It just takes more practice. But for me the twist is just a fun sport plane. I can do some 3D with it, but a good profile is much more capable.
