Yeah... weird huh? I think my SD 260 is probably about the same age or maybe older than the GP. It has an awesome can tunnel.

those silencers take away from your top end a good bit.

The DLE 170 on that airframe will still be a BEAST !!

If you're talking about the GP 38% Extra, it has plenty of cahonies. Flies pretty good. But not enough control for me. The previous and now new owner has not put much throw in the surfaces. My 260 with the 3dub is awrsome though. Can't wait till the Sukhoi is done.

how much does that airplane weigh, if you do not mind me asking?

I believe I was told around 40. Last weekend when I maidened it for my friend, I picked it up, (the best I could...LOL) and then did so with my 260. I know for a fact my 260 comes in just shy of 42 lbs. with no fuel. His just seemed lighter. So to answer your question? I am going to guess, less than 39 anyway. It doesn't fly heavy. But does land much faster than my 260. Probably because it has so much less wing? We're planning a Monday blast off again. I am going to put her through the wringer. Maybe he'll let me dial in some good 3D controls. LOL
