Hi Bob,

 

I 2nd the Global Freestyle.  I used an Irvine .53 and had unlimited
performance with the muffler's internal baffle removed, 15% cool power.
This plane can do the slow-flight 3D stuff but can also point roll.  I have
a Hype 3D which is noted on RCU as a better flyer than the Flip 3D.
However, the Hype cannot do point rolls and has SEVERE rudder induced roll &
pitch couple (3D's great though).  I think the Global Freestyle is a better
strike between the "Venus" and the "Flip 3D" type of planes.

After some surfing...and some emails...(thanks everyone)...here's a short
list...a "pattern" plane, but also capable of some throwing around semi-3D
stuff....that's the target!!!

    I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone (off list would be just fine)
who has experience with ANY of these...pros and cons.  Here goes...

I'm sure there are others I've overlooked, but any feedback on these would
be helpful!
