Default The Difference Between Planes

I see so many different aerobatic planes....260's, 300's, 540's, Yaks, etc. Is there any difference in the way they fly or is just personal preference based on looks? I'd like to build something in the 50cc range but there are so many choices it's hard to decide what model to go with.

They all fly different. Different 260s from different companies fly different, not just the different types of planes. Its all personal preference. I don't worry about looks, to me its all about how well they fly.

Totally agree with Seth...except for one thing....they have to look good too!! HAHA!! Not as important as the way it flies but it's gotta show up all your buddies aircraft.
