ONE PLANE TO FLY
 
If you could only have one plane to fly...

what would you want it to be?

And what engine?

Regards
JC

Most people will quote their latest and greatest airplane. I'm no different I guess, but I have about 2 years on a OMP 67" Fusion. It will 3D, it will IMAC ,and it will sport fly. It is a profile and some want a full fuse. This is just the best plane I have flown in 20 years of flying. It is so solid in any maneuver and has no bad habits. Mine has a Saito 1.25. Lot's of guys are using OS1.20AX if you want a two stroke. If you are looking smaller and don't care about 3D capability. A Sig Something Extra is a great airframe also. It is easy to haul around with a 2 piece wing, is available in kit or ARF and can be powered with a smaller engine. I have a Saito 72 on mine but the plane is just as happy with a good .45-.55 two stroke.

A 4 Star 40 with an OS 40 FP on it for power or a Tiger 2 with a 40 FP on it. Tough question as I really enjoy both those planes. Good Luck, Dave

Thats difficult for me. My fleet is half aerobats and half scale. But I would choose the Kougar also. That plane just flies great.
