Ok, I'm looking at Hanger 9 Aresti, Hanger 9 Funtana and UCD3D(40). What are the thoughts on these 3 planes.

Thanks
Roger

I have the Aresti with a Saito 72 and the U Can Do 3D (60) with a Saito 100, both are great planes. The Aresti is a enty level pattern plane and the other two are more of the 3D type.

If you do some searching around here you can find several threads and reviews of all three planes.

I've got the Funtana.

Great model that goes together well. Don't go with the recommended engines they're too small, yes I made that expensive mistake. Most go with a saito 100but that is top wack and you can get away with less. An OS46FX flies it but not as intended, as in it won't pull out of prop hang.

Look at some of the other theads here there's loads of info. I guess it depends what you want it to do.

thanks guys
I've been reading until my eyes bleed. I think I'm narrowing my x-mas gift down to the UCD3D and the Funtana. My hanger consist of 2 trainers, GP Spacewalker, Vmar Mustang and on the bench is a TP Corsair. Know it's time for stunts. I was hoping that someone had all three or perhaps the above two, for comparison. After my late nigths of reading, I've found that owners of these three planes are very happy. The boss will only allow one under the tree this year. LOL

Have you not old the boss about the "buy one, get one free" offer down at you hobby store?

And surely you've learnt to peel thepric stickers off before you get home.

Get the Funtana, you won't be dissapointed. an O.S. 70 Surpass II is plenty for my machine. Almost unlimited verticle. Unfortunatly I'm on my second, a bad cell caused my Rx pack to fail in flight and lock the controls. I bought another the next day and was flying the day after. This time I mounted 2 packs on separate swithches. I swiched to a Saito 72 and am not as pleased with the performance. Go with the O.S or get an 80 or bigger for power.
Oh and by the way, the boss was never the wiser. From now on, when I crash an arf I'll purchase the same model for replacement and leave the box at the Hobby shop.

Lol! now thats smart thinking!
I just got my funtana today, I cant wait!

I got a Funtana with a Saito 72. I can hang from the prop and still have plenty of power to pull out of it. I am very happy with it, all the people where I fly really seem to like it alot. One guy (I think) is going to get one and put the electric engine in it.

Hay guys:
My LHS has a shop in the back with all the cool tools so, when I need to do some undercover work I just go down there and build build build.
Funny thing??? my wife doesen't seem to be able to tell the difference in numbers, colors, or sizes of the aircraft in my hangar. or maybe she just don't care so the undercover work is becoming less and less lately. Most of my undercover work is to repair crashed planes she can tell the difference in air worthiness.
