You are not going to learn which is the best plane here. Buy one and fly it. Give any one to a pro to fly and watch. I dare you to see the difference. One might present itself a bit better in the air but again that might be another ones opinion.

Ummmmmm, bodyworks is a top level IMAC pilot and has had both which should make his advice pretty darn good between those planes! I am a lower level IMAC pilot, have flown both, and they both felt good to me. I think the AW flew heavier for sure...... but in the wind for IMAC thats not neccesarily a bad thing. The H9 looks substantially bigger side by side, and presents big in the air.

You should try to fly or at least look at both, even if you have to go out of your way to. Planes often look quite different in real life.

Well said Matt.
Best post so far in this thread.
The plane that flies the best is based on one thing.
Burning gas.

There arent many (if at all) RC pilots who are limited by an airframe.
The pilot is usually the limiting factor.

I was trying to burn gas, but the fuse broke in half and messed up my engine and servos.

I'm not trying to bash anybody, so I won't reveal the manufacturer.

I've seen too many ARF's break in the last couple of years.
