class=590235005-25122005> Well, I love my Ikarus F3a Shock-Flyer.
We as pattern pilots are very picky so you will have to decide for yourself.
Mine is set up with an AXI 2204/54, APC 8x3.8 S.F., T.P. 3S 480 LiPO's, Berg
4-channel Rx and 3 Hitec HS-55's. AUW is 6.9 oz. Not super light but OK for
indoor/ outdoor work. I haven't flown this in any serious wind yet, but my
old 9 oz. Shocky Super-Star held up OK so I'm thinking this won't be too
bad. As far as flight characteristics: almost NO roll or pitch
coupling.</SPAN></FONT><SPAN class=590235005-25122005></SPAN><FONT
face=Tahoma><FONT size=2><SPAN class=590235005-25122005><FONT color=#0000ff
face=Arial> I'd have to say it's pretty close to a full-size pattern
plane if you keep in mind it's made out of foam and only weighs 7 oz. You
can do precision maneuvers with it - the wings don't flex and the fuselage
doesn't twist. It grooves nicely and it's not twitchy like some of the
"flexible flyers" made for the 3D wannabes. The new Shockies are much
stronger than the older ones and easier to build straight. If you already
have a motor and some micro radio gear it will only cost you about $50.00
U.S. to try one for yourself. I don't think you'll be
disappointed.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV id=RTEContent>Hi all</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm looking for a small (less than 10oz) foamy for pattern practise
and fun while there's snow on the ground. What have the guys in group
used? I've tried rcu for opinions and found it impossible to get any
consensus...there are as many negatives as positives for every aircraft
discussed.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have a GP Turmoil however it flys more like a kite than a precision
aircraft. I'm looking for something that has been designed for more than
just hovering/3D.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any help will be appreciated.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
