Default Which Plane

Hello,

I need some help choosing my next plane !

I am looking for a 60 sized plane, something that is mildly aerobatic (flat spin, cuban 8's) but is still fun to fly. All of the planes i have know are 40 size and i own a Extra along with a biplane. The sig four star is a option but i really am not attracted to that ARF.


Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated !

Thanks Scott

How about the Pulse from Horizon? That comes in various sizes. I'm partial to the Tiger series from Goldberg. I had the .40 size with a Thunder Tiger .46 and it was one of the best I've ever owned. A friend in my club has the .60 size and has been flying it for well over a year. Another great flyer!

Great planes revolver. Its fast, aerobatic, and a blast to fly. Its my favorite out of the 7 planes in my hangar. It does land a little hot, but not bad once you get used to it.

I don't know why you are not attracted to the Sig Fourstar, of the tons of airplanes I owned over the years (and crashed) sig airplanes have always been the brand that I kept and transported with me all over my relocations.
Sig is a very good brand, very high score in my books and I never hated a single airplane that i bought and assembled from them.
I am even on my second yellow Fourstar due to an unfortunate crash, I can never imagine my fleet without one.

I kind of love sport flying, but also acrobatic moves and some speed flying, and the Fourstar despite some of its bad behaviors has always kept up with my expectations and the other member's too. I am not competing F3A with it for sure, but it get the most flight out of a day...

Hello

Thanks for the suggestions. The pulse XT and tiger both seem like a very appealing planes. We will have to see what plane i will choose and decide which 4 stroke i plan on using.

I have nothing against SIG's but the four star is just not a plane that looks attractive to me !
