Default fun with a trainer?

does anyone have any suggestions on what type of tricks I can do with a trainer as I have a couple and I am starting to get board. or should I just push the plane to its max and see what happens. I already think I am doing too much with the 20 size as it is overpowered with a .35 and a few friends at the field have warned me of the possobilities of that could happen. I have a superstar 20 and a hobbistar 60 and a us aircore 40 all trike set up. are there any cool mods I can do? how could I convert the 20 to tail dragger?

I have an ASP .61 on my LT40! Max it out and have some fun. Use dual aileron servos for flaperons/spoilerons. Move the cg back. Take the diehedral out of the wing and glass the center when you put it back together. Build a bigger split elevator to allow for a MUCH bigger rudder. Those mods should keep you busy for awhile! Just remember it's still a trainer, but much more aerobatic. No 100mph dives or flybys, even with the mods.

Default mod superstar

I have the superstar, not the select.
I love flying it inverted, i have rubbed the wingtips on the ground, stuff like that.
