Beginner pattern plane
I have a Ys 91AC and was wondering which of these would be the best beginner pattern plane in the 60-90 class ARF: Excelleron 90, WM Groovy F3A 90, or the GP Venus II. Thanks.

RE: Beginner pattern plane
The Excelleron flies EXCEPTIONALLY (I am no expert however) I flew the Excelleron with a YS-1.10 and it was VERY impressive I bet the 91 would be good but anything higher than sportsman I think you may be short on power-

RE: Beginner pattern plane
I flew my original JR Explorer ( AKA Excelleron) with a used YS91AC and it flew fine. Could easily do the sportsman sequence. I think it would be short on the vertical maneuvers in Intermediate. Naturally I later stepped up to the YS110 and loved the power. If you have the 91 already, give it a try. At least if you decide to step up to the 110 it's just a bolt in replacement.
