Default Good 3d foamy

I'm looking for a good 3d foamy. I'm mainly looking at the insane foamy .com katana, yak, or sypher. If anyone has ever flown one of these could you tell me how they flew. Or if anyone has flown any other good ones out there tell me how they did. Also, i need one that can take some abuse.

Most profiles are pretty fragile but I don't have any experience with these particular aircraft. If you want something tough check out the airfoilz, copperhead aviation stiffies, or e-foamies epp extra and yak.

the airfoilz can take a lot of abuse.. I know cuz mine is very much abused haha I could do full speed blenders all day if I want and it won't hurt the plane at all.. They are also very good flyers. Check them out at www.airfoilz.com They have videos on there you might like to watch.

Yeah I've seen the airfoilz fly. They looked like they fly well. But it's just that I've flown some of the insane foamies and they flew really well. But thanks for the advice.



P.S. Do you like the airfoilz edge or the yak better.

I just finished a Revolution3D. It is EP so should crash well. I've not crashed it yet.

I like the airfoilZ because they have great performance. You could also try one from www.chargerrc.com. I have one of their CR-2's and it can perform a lot of good manuevers.

Thanks for all the the suggestions guys. Now I think I'll have to get them all lol. But I think that I may just design my own and fly out.( I've got like 12 big sheets of foam sitting around) But thanks for your help.
