Thanks for the info I got lucky and found my manual. I used a TT pro 46 with a bisson pitts muffler and all I can say is wow! I got to test fly it Monday and it is a blast.It will slow way down, alot more than I ever thought it would. Flat spins are o.k. not too flat but it will do them inverted. Lomcevacs are almost violent. I think this might become my new favorite plane. well until my Y/A 60 size edge gets here. Oh, and with a .46 I still needed nose weight. The .46 will pull this little plane up, and up forever. Good luck with yours and have fun its a great little plane.

Thanks,
Steve

captainpitts, I was thinking of getting either the 30 sized cap or Extra.........and powering it with a TT Pro .46 also. They seem to be a great value. It would be my first scale aerobatic model.....did the plane seem like it has any bad tendencies?

Default cap

Mike,

This plane didn't seem to have any bad tendencies. I love caps and I fly a 1/4 scale cap alot and it as well as other ones I've seen love to snap. But not this little plane she will slow way down. On the first flight I took it a few mistakes high just to see how she would slow down and on "my" high rates (25-35 deg. deflection) she would almost harrier. I'm not that good of a 3-d pilot yet but it did it's little wing wobble nose high and just kept on going. About the worst tendency I noticed was some tuck during knife edge flight. not to bad though. with the tt .46 on it you will love this little plane it is a lot of fun to fly. Can't wait for my 60 size edge to get here!

Good Luck,
Steve
