I wouldn't put the Spacewalker in the aerobatic category, it's a good flier and will roll and loop but thats about it. What size are you looking for?

yeah i thought of that when i put it up there

uh... 70-85" would be ideal, nothing larger than that though

You have tons of choices:

-G.P Extra 300S patty wagstaff.

-G.P Christen Eagle.

- Chip Hyde DV or CapX .

-Kanke laser 2000.

And many more....


Put a DA 50 in these birds and thank me later...

OK lets narrow it down alittle more, are you looking for 3D or mild aerobatics. How much do you want to spend? Do you have a motor you want to use?

H9 Taylorcraft, fits most of your description... may not be as aerobatic as you want

The ARF is really sweet. A friend had one out 2 weeks ago, it's real looker and flew great but then again he could make a pinic table fly great. He had a Saito 180 and it was doing every trick in the book. He did shorten the nose moment by 1 1/2" I believe.

well at this point im thinkin about building the kit version of it, i just spent a ton of money on something else totally different

Well another club member flew his Kit Sukoi last Saturday with electric power, it was something. The kit builds very light and strong.

Sounds like you need an Ultimate. DP 120 size Mild to wild!
