RE: 3D airframe for 50cc
Hey steve why don't you wait and get one of the omp hybrid edges??? Or you can wait and get one of the extreme flight 87" yak's. I doubt you will get a better plane for 3-d than that. Of course they are not out yet, but from the reports of the 68" yak, and what Wayne has said, and watching the 87" fly last year they just have to be awsome. Light wieght with a lot of wing area.
Big knife not doing it for you?

RE: 3D airframe for 50cc
When I did that research a few months ago, I ended up with the Columbo-Anderson 27% Extra.
Note I was looking for a kit, not an ARF. Swany is buiding one too.
Just got it in the air - About 10 flights so far. DA-50 for power.
Good flying plane, but you must keep it on the wing. Can't horse around elevator like the profiles! [X(]
Now, I'm thinking about the OMP Hybrid.
That would fly the way I like for sure (Super slow) but I can't get this monster to fit in my van.
If I was looking for an ARF, I would do one of the Wild Hare planes for sure.

BME aircraft also has a new 50cc edge coming out in a few weeks as well. I think it's www.bmeaircraft.com

I just flew a Double Vision / DA-50 for the first time about 2 hours ago.
Very nice. Hard to imagine something better powered with 50cc.

As you can see there's a WHOLE BUNCH of great 50cc offerings out there.
Wild Hare Edge & Extra
Double Vision
AW Ultimate
Soon we'll see the:
BME Edge 85" and under 16 lbs...
BME Pitts Challenger
Extreme Flight 87" Yak (this one is MUST)
And more are coming. Truth is... you need to choose the plane based on your flying demands... want a plane that'll take full elevator and not snap? DV or EF Yak.
Want the lightest wingloading? BME Edge
Best value? Wild Hare
You just can't go wrong with any of them. This is THE year of the 50cc planes and it'll be a year to remember that's for sure.

If you have the money, go with the Double Vision. It was designed around 3D. A bipe normally will not roll with precision at slow speeds due to the design of the ailerons. That was corrected with the DV design. All the flight moments are in the right places to permit better 3d flight. The second wing will give you options in stalls that just isn't there with a monoplane. The oversize flight surfaces are all double beveled for large control throws, and it comes in lighter with more wing area than larger planes. Weight and wing area are big considerationsfor 3D flight.
If you want to spend a little less, go with Wild Hare. Proven designs that fly very well, like to 3D, with excellent quality.
Dare to be different.

Stupid uncalled for remark removed. Took me that long to get the foot out of my mouth.
My apoligies to all for my unprofessional comment.

Thanks 3DSWEPED, however the airframe is original.
Some people just like to copy other people designs in this hobby, some of them even get sued. However this one is original.

Hey D Cini, I give you credit for designing and creating your own airplane, OMP is a great company and I even have the pleasure of flying the OMP Edge. I know your planes fly good, keep it up.
