Hi,

I was thinking about buying this for second plane but I want some feedback first. I have a few questions. 1. Is this a good second plane, I've heard that it flies stable at low speeds. 2. How would it fly with a .40FX 3. Does it fly 3D. 4. If you have any pics of nice trim schemes give me the link


Thanks

I've never flown one except for on Realflight, but I think there are better second plane choices out there....it seems that the plane has more of a tendency to tip-stall than a Tiger 2, 4 Star, Easysport to name a few. I think it would make a great 3rd plane.

There was a nice one on the cover of RCReport a few months back. I wouldn't think it would do 3D, but it should groove nicely.

Try www.vansairforce.net and look at the RV of the week or
www.vansaircraft.com. I am sure you will find plenty of ideas
for color and styles.

Barto, Check out the review from R/C Report- they can get you a copy of the issue it was in.
