If you're wanting a biplane to try some 3D with and that's also quite affordable, you might check into the Rhythm 3D that's covered in this thread. I have one, and while I don't like it quite as well as my Yak-55, it flew quite well. It was a much more challenging build than the Yak, though--some really weird things it did with the push rods (CF+shrink tubing+wire???). Unfortunately, it's also not a very sturdy plane, and mine is currently out of action due to the lower wing tearing off on a landing in some grass (!).
Still--good plane for the money, so long as you land her gentle. Oh, and I used the same electrics in the Rhythm 3D that I currently have in my Yak-55. But whereas the Yak does great with just a 2S lipo, the Rhythm seemed to really need a small 3S to fly true 3D. |

The best little bipe I have flown so far is hands down the Multiplex Gemini. being made of Elapor sure keeps the hanger rash down.
MRC is blowing out the little Vivi bipe cheap, if that works for you. Tommy D |
