which FF,ARF is best
None
I have all but the TopCap and my new (only 4 flights) Goldberg Extreme 330 is better. I can't find any bad habbits and it tumbles better than the Knife. This is the best knife edge flyer I have ever had, very little coupling. It has all the great characteristics of the Knife but can fly even slower. The quality was great and went together fast. Can you tell I like this plane

RE: which FF,ARF is best
I'm currently flying a Topcap ARF. Had a Knife ARF. And I've flown a friends Magic on several occasions (and friend of mine has the Goldberg Ex-treme 330 as well).
IMHO, the Knife is the best of the lot. The Magic is the easiest to hover and the Ex-treme seems to be a stable flyer, but nothing can flat spin or knife loop quite like the Knife. Pull-pulls on both the rudder and elevator definitely give it a control edge. I'm still getting used to the Topcap, but it's rudder is way out there and doesn't seem to tumble like the Knife.
