So, I got the go ahead from the wife to buy a new plane! I've got two of the Parkzone planes now, this one is the Typhoon 2 3D...flew it for the first time today. It is much more responsive than the T-28 Trojan I've been flying around! I didn't even touch my high rates today...the low rates threw it around well enough for me! Lands differently too. Going to need to get used to landing it with power on, doesn't glide as well as my Trojan. I had a lot of fun with it though, the control surfaces have a really good amount of throw on them at low rates, pretty surprising. It's still in one piece even with my less than perfect landings today...so I call it a successful day! Hope to get some video sometime if I can ever remember to bring the video camera with us when I go to fly! Good times!
