Default looking for an F3A airplane

I'm looking for a good F3A model for precision aerobatics for engines OS 46FX OR OS 61FX.

I thought about the ZEN 50 or maybe the kyosho Majestic 1400.


What do you recommend???

I just flew a Magie from Giant Scale Aircraft for the first time today. It flies well with a YS 63 FS which is way more than enough for it. The quality of the plane is pretty good too.

I recently purchased a Cermark Javelin II.

See review here: http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/a...article_id=218

I love this plane! Unbeatable value for the price! Excellent craftsmanship!

I bought it from Hobby Warehouse for just $ 159.99. See them at www.hobby-warehouse.com

Good luck!

Hi Fire Bolt:

The kyosho Majestic 1400 is not a choice for a real F3A entry plane. It’s a good machine but it doesn’t have the profile of a real pattern plane.

If you are thinking in a WMA, ZEN 50 or even a Tai Ji 40 will be better.

I personally flew for a year and a half a Tai Ji 40 with an OS 61 FX and it really works. Try it and you really will enjoy it.
During the same time I flew for a few times a Majestic, but it never gave me the same sensation than the Tai Ji.

Saludos,
