Nice looking plane and has the exact same color scheme as the Carl Goldberg SU-26MX Sukhoi (see the pic below). I have had/have a couple of Seagull planes (Extra and the new Edge540) and all were built very well. But being built very well made them heavy. If you want to fly sport then have have it. If you want 3D, all out 3D, there are better planes (read that as lighter planes) or you will need to seriously overpower it which will make it even more heavy and hard to land without it stalling at a much higher speed

Now I am assuming quite a bit here. I have not seen that plane but Seagul models have been heavy for as long as they have been around.

I have had a few of the 54 yak .90. I found that the they fly very well with the right size engine. the first time you fly it make it a bit nose heavy, all three of the yaks I had at correct CG were tail heavy. I lost the first one to that, second one was a radio problem so i'm on number 3, the new color scheme but I went with a Saito 150 on this one. The second one I had I had a 100 but didn't seem to be strong enough but flew well till the radio issue. I got about 6 months out of it so not to bad.
Good Luck!
