Default ARF Recommendations

I recently picked up a new rear exhaust 10cc (.61 cu in) 2 stroke motor and I am looking for a new plane to use this with. I no longer have the patience or even the space to build a proper kit so I am looking for an ARF (maybe an ARC). The rear exhaust is a bit of a problem but hopefully there is something out there to suit.

I am a good flyer and have flown Quickee 40 pylon planes, 60 size Stik, etc... so I can fly. I'd prefer something just for fun flying and general club flying. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Well, if it's a strong 61 RE you may want to try something in the pattern world such as a WM Zen or Tai Ji. Both are made for rear exhaust engines have the pipe tunnels already built into the plane. Both of these are excellent fliers and I'm sure you like the way they handle. I have the Zen 120 and couldn't be happier.

Tai-Ji

That's my recommendations in the ARF category. Good luck!

I'll second swill's recommendations. You cant go wrong with any of World Models 60 size birds. but those 2 are specifically for rear exhaust!
