Default Phase 3 Quick Time EPP

I just got one last night, and took it out for a test fly today. It was horrifying. The horizontal and vertical stabs flexed way to much, causing a severe lack in controll throw. It was a feat to just get the plane to do a loop.

However, after returning from the field, I had fixed the problem with tape, glue and some left over wires I had in the box, oh and some scrap EPP.

After strengthening the fuselage up, and the horizontal and vertical stabs, I'm happy to say that the plane is a good flying plane. Perfect for getting into 3D flight.

My question is: Does anyone have one that they regularly fly in a 3D manner? Like hovers, waterfalls, harriers, rolling circles, ect.?

I'm really not wanting to have to switch over to depron foamies for a little while, so I can perfect my maneuvers with this tough plane. And I know it's tough. I stuck the landing into a ground composing of dirt, pebbels, rocks, and grass. It came down with a "THUNK", but suffered no damage, so I'm very happy right now

Well, almost happy. Can't hover this one YET.

Oh yes, and does anyone actually prefer to fly this plane over other planes?
