Default 3D FOAMY edge 540 V.S. cap 232.

Which one in your opinion? I like the looks of the cap 232 and edge 540, but i sont know which one will fly better. I want the plane to be able to roll smootly, hover study, and do good 3D manuvers. I will use, geared eflite 400 innruner brushless motor, eflite esc, GWS reciver, (2) eflite servos, and (1) HS 55.
thanx

Try one of the models from www.leeulingermodels.com he just recently came out with an Edge 540, check out the video to see how awesome it flys.

Hey, I had a small hand with the product testing on the new supper line, I would really recomend the Supper Cap. I fly just about every foamy I can get my hands on and the Super Cap is by far the most durable. There is embeded carbon fiber throughout the fuse and wings. There is an extra 5" of wing area so the wing loading is actually a little lighter that the "Pro" series Cap. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

I had the porginal 3D Foamy Cap and it was a good one. Great at hovering, flat spinning, snap rolls, and blenders. Rolling circles not bad either. Can't speak to the Edge, but I bet it rocks.

Now that is funny as he!!. I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. Thanks Toro, I needed that.

Hey Tony, next time you talk to Taco, tell him I sold those DA 150 mufflers you were asking about, and never got back to me on. Or was it you that wanted them? I keep getting you two mixed up, I'm sorry.

I had the Cap, flew poorly lots of coupling. The Sukhoi few better. Out of the 3DFoamy range the best was the Super Extra

I still prefer my Airfoilz Yak by far for all manouvers.
