Re: Best 3D Airplane in 40% or Larger
I moved your thread to the appropriate forum.
Best is a tough word to classify a plane with. There are a bunch of great flying planes right now. AeroWorks has a 260 that is proven. I believe that they will be coming out with a 300 soon. I've seen the AW Ultimate like in your avatar fly and it does so quite well. Extreme Flight is coming out with a 300 hopefully soon, it has been in the works for quite some time now and should be near release. 3D Hobby Shop has a BIG Slick. JTEC has a great flying 300. PAU has a big Edge to offer. There are lots of options out there, its a good time to be in the market for a big ARF!

For HARD 3D, i'd say an SD or pilot ( TT Toc Extreme ) plane.

Re: Best 3D Airplane in 40% or Larger
Yes the AW Ultimate fly's nice as the one you see in my Avatar is mine. My main concern is structural integrity. The person that I am building this for flys extremly hard and has doubled the wings on several planes including a Hanger 9 ultimate.

Re: Best 3D Airplane in 40% or Larger
Thanks for the info on the SD 260 at Chief, we will be purchasing an airplane and configuring it from scratch. I am looking at the 3W line of planes as I have one in the shop and they look to be built like tanks but very light, honeycomb and carbon galore. Any info on them and how they fly?
