Difference in performance from 35% to 40%?????

LJJ · 09-01-2006, 10:15 PM

What is the general thoughts on the bennifits/drawbacks from going from the 35% class to the 40%-42% class. Preformance only.... Io know price is a major change.

Specifically.... do you get...

Better precision from one to the other?
Better snaps "" "" ""
Judge better in IMAC?
Better 3D "" ""

I've only had 33%-35% planes in the past, but am thinking that I want to see about the next step up. Just looking for some feedback. Winter's coming soon, and I'll have a build project to work on, so need some info for planning.

Thanks.

More stable in wind
Flies slower
Easier for judges to see (can fly alittle further away)

Snaps and 3D are gonna be based on airframe type/motor combo. Some 35% will do more and do it faster or more aggressive
