I have heard that the 101 yak is pretty slow on a downline. But I heard that the Python is a beast on the DA85 also.

QQ 101" is great! I almost bought one. BUT the EF Yak 110" is the same weight, 9 more inches of wing. It presents HUGE. The EF 110" is more of a 3D plane though. All depending on what you want to do.
