I just got a escapade that is almost finished, just have to cut the optional cowl out that i got for it. I just upgraded to 4.5 and was looking around on knife edge and the escapade is there for you to fly, now I was wondering if anyone has an escapade and has flown one is it similar to the sim? Thank you. Also a very very nice touch on the 4.5 version was the bouncing when taking off and landing with planes with skirts on, very realistic. I have not yet tried to fly on the water but will do so today. The escapade that you can download stated the plane has a 70 size 4 stroke and is propped for more 3d rather than speed, so I know it will fly a little different than mine as I have mine propped for speed and have a OS 55ax and just ordered a Jett muffler for it. So im sure it will fly way different. Thanks fellas.
