Well from what i've heard the Spazler is pretty good, or there's a PBF or Ciggy pack (almost full 3D for about $5USD), then someone did a WASPAD (coro Sirex wasp) or the DPS with over size ailerons is good.
Oh and aparently Kahn's "blue healer" is a top performer
and i recon a HOR 3D plane would be easy
Most of these are at www.spadtothebone.com
and some are at http://members.sitegadgets.com/coroqueen/links.html
and more at Stus exelent site http://www.spadworld.com/
the original wasp is at www.users.bigpond.com/sirexwasp/
or just copy a 3D plane you like but be warned YOU have to do a set of plans for the rest of us

Thanks!!! A few ?????
Those are some great links. I have built about 8 different planes all with crazy aileron throws/ruder/elevator throws. I can't seem to torque roll, or hover, or knife edge, or upright flat spin. Those 4 tricks I am trying to complete but have had no success. Here are some examples...The closest hover/harrier I have been able to do had huge wing rock and would come crashing down. It seemd that my elevator did not have enough throw, but it was at least at 50 degrees. When I try Knife Edge's the plane snaps crazy when I input a little rudder. It is amazing, when the plane's wings are vertical, I feed in a little rudder to hold the knife edge and it sends the plane into an inverted uncontrolable flat spin and falls to the ground. I have never flown a b#ls@ plane so Im not sure if it is just the SPAD thing why I cant do these cool maneuvers. Or maybe its just my thumbs but I have been trying for a long time now. I also want to be able to take off and instantly go into a climbing knife edge. Or harrier. THANKS EVERYONE!!!!

You might want to try Chris's Coro Edge, it's a profile funfly.

I have had a Spad 3D or Wizard for some time now. This was designed by one of my club members last year. I believe he sold them at the perry meet last year for 50 bucks. This plane hovers, harriers, and torque rolls very well using a plain .46 BB engine with 12/4 apc. He will be selling them at the Perry meet again this year. He has around 30 of them and he will be selling a good flying PBF too. He is now working on a design that uses a cap 232 style tail. The prototypes I have seen look to fly pretty good.
