time to step up, but where to?

[schonnwurfel38]

for about the past year i've been buying planes and flying them, and either liking them and keeping them until i wear them out or sell them. now it's time to step up but theres SUCH a multitude of options to choose from where do i go?

one of my best friends and I were talkign he suggested the Extreme Flight 74 inch yak which would be great but thats just 1 option, and it was also just 1 opinion.

So shoot me all of your favorite ideas of things you like to fly because right now its all about broadening my flight horizons haha

as of RIGHT now the biggest thing i have is a 68 inch edge 540 which i crashed on purpose because i hated it but then decided to fix it.
along with that i have the GP e-performance ya, and an e-flite mini funtanaX, a kyosho caliber 30, and a few other things that arnt worth naming haha

so hit up the ideas

well it really depends on the direction that you want to go and size $$$$ tell us a little more and them I will give you some ideas

[schonnwurfel38]

money isnt really an issue because anything in the range from .72 to 50cc wont kill me.any direction. what im asking is from points of views of flyers all around what is the most enjoyablebecause 3d is fun with foamies and little electrics but what about with a 1.60 to 50cc? anything change? 3d is fun but i cant fly all in high-stall situations pattern and scale i really appreciate too. not too much of a warbird guy:-\ thats what the old guys are for hahaprecise-yet-violently-3d is the best way i can describe it hahai dont want something that flies itself "hands off" thats boring i want something smooth yet huckable

I just don't get this crashing things on purpose? I know you can do what you want with your own property etc. more power to ya! I just don't get it..

As for which airplane to get, I think thats a decision that ultimately only you can make. Some people pick out an engine they like and then find the best plane to put it in, others do it the other way around. It depends on your flying style, what you enjoy, what you like the look of - all that good stuff. Let us all know what you end up going with and how you decided on that model...

[schonnwurfel38]

it was a poorly put together model and i wanted to get something better so it gave me an excuse to get something better haha

My first big plane was my 50cc yak, but i think the aeroworks extra 260 is one of the best 50cc class planes

If you want to step up to a gas airplane then your best bet is to go with the Wild Hare company. They have some great airplanes that are very cheap and fly great and are very durable. If you want to get a Yak they have a 50cc yak. I don't care Wild Hare has the best first gasser airplanes in the world.

thewarp has a great point.. Cheap and very durable.. I have one and fly the pants off of it... Tom is very helpful as well. Talk to him and he will set you up with a complete kit... enigne, servos all at a very good price... If i remember correctly it was the cheapest one i could find.. Cheap in price quality is there and you can do IMAC as well as 3d it... Very nice planes...
