ohh yes i forgot about the extre flight....
yes but this is the best forum, others take like 2 days to respond, and i prefer an answer from the bros!!!!!!
Allright, My 1.99 cents. I'll personally avoid any of the scale birds below the 50cc gasser size. At that size (around 84 inch) the weight/wingloading/reynolds number variables all come into favorable conditions for legitimate 3D performance.msm said:ohh yes i forgot about the extre flight....

The only exception I have seen is the EF Yak (little one). It is almost a 1/4 scale bird that finishes under 9 lbs if equipped right (I personally helped 3littlefonzies- Chris weigh his). And watching him fly his, it's a sweeeet bird.
The 72 inch 11-13 lbs birds are just plain old squirrley like twist noted above. Yeah they will 3D, If you have some serious thumbs. I've had a 1/4 scale Cap and flown several in that size range, no thanks.
One other exception. 4 years ago at the Henderson KY fly-in a guy had a Goldberg Sukhoi he had swiss cheesed seriously (9 lbs). It 3D'd well and was very stable, bet here we are on the wingloading thing again.
After watching constrictor with his 65 inch Yak/YS110 this summer, I drool for the 79 incher. If it's any better and more stable in 3D than the 65'er, should be a showstopper.
