Default Which 40 size Cap 232??

Thinking about getting the Worlds Model Cap 232 40 for my next plane. Anyone have any comments on how it builds, fly, etc. I like this plane better then the Kyosho, and Hanger 9. But if anyone suggest that the others fly better I may decide to get one of them instead.

I have the Kyosho with a Saito 80 and it is a very fun plane. Put that thing on 3D throws and will tumble and waterfall like nothing I have ever seen! It slows down pretty well for a small cap. All in all a very nice plane.

From what I've read the WM Cap is one of the best ones in that size range. Well-built, comes with decent hardware, is covered with ultracote-type covering and flies wonderfully.

I did all the research and *was* going to get one of these - that was before the $200 1/4 scale H9 Cap closeout event happened.

I now have two of the H9 Cap kits

Default WM CAP 232 40

I have the 40 size CAP from WM with a Saito 72 and a 14x6 prop.

Plane was a breeze to put together, everything fits well, the only change I made was to install an elevator bell crank in the rear of the fuse to keep the elevator halfs working well, I hate dual push rods.

Flying is effortless and I will do anything you ask of it. Landing is also easy, just make sure it's balanced correctly.

The only thing I would change is the motor...go with a Saito 91 and move the battery behind the wing and you will be set.

All in all I am very happy with the plane.

Good luck.
Eric

Any of you guys have any pictures of the WM Cap? If so I would really like to see some. As of right now I only have a 46FX for power, would this pull the Cap decent, or should I save my pennies and get a good 4 stroker?
