I'm looking for opinions on choosing an appropriate biplane for IMAC and some 3D. I have a 50cc engine and an 80cc (actually it's a BME102, but it's only marginally stronger than the current 80's). What do you have experience with and what do you recommend? Why? What should I specifically stay away from?

Here are the planes I know about that are available:
1. Great Planes Ultimate - My thinking is that it is too small for 50cc, am I wrong?
2. Wild Hare Ultimate - don't know anything about this one.
3. Aeroworks Ultimate - Not sure about this one, seems like many folks did not like it or the rigging wires.

What else is there?

I appreciate your thoughts on the matter.

I have the Gp Ultimate and use a DA50 on it and it's right at 16lbs and flies just great. I've had the WH version as well and it also flies great but was closer to 17.5 pounds with the exact same setup as the GP version. (I used the stuff from the WH version in the GP version)

There is a huge thread on the Gp version in the 3D forum and there are only a very small handfull of things to improve upon and most will only cast you less than 10 bucks to do. The first one comes to mind is the darn thing uses CA hinges, we replaced them with dubro hinges and there are a few different landing gear mods as the stock stuff while really good is a bit springy.

There were a few that had bad wing joiners that we came up with a very simple and super cheap fix for that takes all of 5 minute to do.

I hammer on mine something fierce and it just takes it and wants more

How did the GP Ultimate fly; Will it handle Imac and 3D manuevers?
