Global Freestyle - Is .46 enough?
I'm interested in the Global Freestyle.
Does anyone have a ABC/BB .46 w stroke set up?
I'm wondering how it does for general 3D flying.
(I'm guessing a 12x4 prop is used)

I've had mine since they came out in October. I am using an OS50SXBB with the APC 3D 12.25 x 3.75 Prop. Verical is pretty much out of sight, hover is at about halfthrottle. Extremely great plane at low speed and low altitude. It will knife edge at about 1//3 throtlle at 12 inches off the ground and just stick there. Sweet little sunday plane.

I love this plane.
I powered mine with a Magnum .46 and ran an apc 11/4 and it flies great!!! Knife edges with very little rudder, don't know about the hovering, I don't think the magnum has the power for it and I haven't tried yet. It's a light airframe, and be careful on landings. Watch the Fuse sides for cracks....the balsa sheets will run on you real quick.
